Digital Certificate
Certificado Digital FNMT
The FNMT digital certificate is your electronic ID for accessing Spanish government services online. Essential for tax filings, Social Security queries, and many official procedures.
The certificado digital from the FNMT (Fábrica Nacional de Moneda y Timbre) is Spain's official electronic identification system. It allows you to identify yourself online to government agencies with the same legal validity as appearing in person. Once you have it, you can file taxes, check your Social Security record, sign documents, and access dozens of government services from your computer.
Online notary available: Many of our services can be completed via online notary from the comfort of your home. Where in-person notarization is required or preferred, we can arrange this at a notary local to you.
