Skip information indexHow to get accredited if you are outside Spanish territory
Citizens not resident in Spanish territory may manage their electronic certificate through the Spanish Consular Offices abroad, as long as it is a certificate from the National Mint and Stamp Factory.
To obtain the certificate through an issuing entity other than FNMT , it is necessary to contact said entity if that possibility exists.
Obtaining a certificate from the FNMT basically consists of three steps: application through the FNMT website, personal accreditation at the consulate or embassy (you must provide the code obtained at the time of the application and the requested documentation) and, by Lastly, download the certificate also from the website of this certifying entity. The fourth recommended step is to make a backup copy of the certificate obtained to allow you to recover it if necessary.
On the CERES (Spanish Certification) website you have more information about this procedure. However, you can also contact their Customer Service by sending an email to ceres@fnmt.es.
Legal persons and entities without legal personality not resident in Spanish territory may also manage to obtain the electronic certificate of the FNMT through the Consular Offices of Spain abroad authorized for this purpose.
