Electronic organ seal certificate

For the identification, electronic signature and, data and communications encryption by an administrative body.

What it consists of and what it is used for

A digital certificate is an electronic credential that allows secure identification, electronic signature and, in this case, can also be used for encryption.

When we talk about e-Organ seal certificate we refer to certificates that will identify and be undertaken by an application or computer development of administrative actions. It is precisely for these purposes that we have named.

In other words, just as we identify ourselves and sign electronically with digital certificates, administrative bodies can also do the same.

They are issued with a default validity of 12 or 24 months.

What are the benefits for you?

  • Authorship or willfulness of an administrative action"
  • Confidentiality of the information handled by the body of an Administration"
  • Secure identification of administrative acts by means of computer systems"

How to request the certificate

  1. Access NPSC

You must access the Non-Personal Certification Services Area (NPSC), identifying yourself with a digital certificate accepted by @firma.

If you have doubts, you can verify the validity of your certificate on the VALIDE platform.

  1. Register

If it is your first time accessing, you will need to fill out a registration form, providing the required documentation, and wait for our response.

If the organization is already registered in NPSC and you access with a representative certificate, the system will automatically register you as a user, without the need to attach additional documentation.

If you have accessed with a representative certificate and the organization is not registered, you only need to include the CIF in the form, without the need to attach documentation proving user permissions.

  1. Request the Certificate

Fill out the application form with the certificate details and accept the quote (after completing the application, you will receive it by email).

Remember that if more than 13 months have passed since the necessary documentation was provided, you will need to attach it again.

However, if you access with a representative certificate, only the organization’s CIF will be requested, without the need to renew user documentation.

  1. Download the Certificate

When the application is approved, we will send you a notification by email. From that moment, whether you have requested the certificate or are a user with an administrator role, you can access NPSC and generate the certificate.

If any type of documentation has expired or has been rejected from what you may have provided in the previous step, it will be requested again before you can generate the certificate.

Remember that if you access with a representative certificate, user documentation will not be requested.

  1. Save a Copy of the Certificate

Save the downloaded file in a secure location. Remember that you will need it, along with the PIN you entered, every time you wish to install the certificate.

For security reasons, ACCV does not have access to any of them, so their loss, in case you need to install the certificate, will require a new application, assuming the cost.

  1. Install the Certificate

Once generated, you can install the new certificate wherever you need it. As with any other certificate, depending on the type of server and/or system, the process may differ and is up to you.

  1. Make the Payment

After generating the certificate, you will receive the invoice along with the necessary information for payment.

How to use the e-Organ seal certificate

Like any other certificate, once downloaded, you will have to install it so that the application for which you obtained it can use it. Depending on the application server and/or application this process is different, and it is up to you.

Remember to keep a security copy of the certificate and associated cryptographic keys. With the download only you have this set. And its loss will result in the request for a new one.

Information that could be useful

These are some of the most common questions we receive. If you do not find an answer to your question, contact us.

How much does it cost?

The price of this certificate varies depending on whether you request it for 1, 2 or 3 years.

The concrete value you will be able to see in the budget that will be sent to you during the request process. If you cannot wait or you need this value before, write to gestioncerts@accv.es with the data of your entity and the certificate you want, so we can inform you.

How long does it take to obtain the certificate?

As you know, the application process requires action on your part and ours.

On our side we attend the requests in order of entry, always as quickly as possible. Although we cannot give an exact deadline, if your answers are also fast, you can get the certificate from a few hours to around 72 hours usually.

In what format can I download the certificate?

There are different ways to download the certificate, but the default and recommended process is to download it in .p12 format (PKCS#12). This is the most common and accepted format.

How do I renew my certificate?

The renewal actually consists of a new application with the same data as the expiring certificate.

The expiring certificate is not initially revoked. When you have downloaded the new certificate that replaces it, you will have to change it where you have it installed and then revoke the old one from the area for the management of non-personal certificates (NPSC).

I don’t remember my certificate PIN. What do I do?

The PIN or password of a certificate is defined by the person who downloads it at that moment.

As the custodian of this certificate only that person should know that PIN. We do not have access to it at any time and cannot help you retrieve it. It is a security measure.

If you do not remember the PIN of your certificate, you do not have access to it and you need it, we regret to tell you that you can only order a new certificate from scratch and pay its cost.

How do I know the serial number of my certificate?

The serial number is a number that appears on the certificate. You can, for example, install your certificate in your Operating System’s homepage and look it up from there. This is the easiest way.

How do I know if my certificate is type 4 or 8.

The e-Organ seal certificates we issue are qualified and type 8.

I have lost my certificate or I think it has been compromised.

You will have to revoke it from the area for the management of non-personal certificates (NPSC). From that moment on, the certificate is cancelled and can no longer be used.

Remember that revocation is irreversible. Once revoked, you must request a new certificate if you need an active one.
