No, with ANF AC’s Access-to-CMS Pack you will have to acquire but a single certificate. We take care of tying together anything necessary for you to carry out the authentication and to sign documents with a single certificate.


How can I apply for the certificate?

We employ several different methods to carry out the process of purchasing your electronic certificate. Please, contact us and an Account manager will take care of accompanying you throughout it.


Can I apply for a certificate from any given place?

Yes


How long may the delivery of a certificate be delayed?

The delivery may take place on the same day provided all the documentation is correct. In case that a hardware device is required, it will be subject to the appliable expected time of delivery. Please bear in mind that having a token is not compulsory for this process.


What is the objective of using physical support?

In accordance with technical regulations, the certificate must be hosted in a QSCD device so that the electronic signature can be done. However, it can be done without having to purchase any additional hardware (which would make the process more expensive), as you may acquire and use the certificate from ANF AC’s Safe Servers.


UPC says that having hardware available is compulsory.

We are aware. However, currently there is no actual need for the final user to be in the possession of said hardware to comply with the relevant technical requirements.


I want to have a hardware device, what must I do?

If you want to purchase the QSCD hardware on your own behalf, you have to analyse the List of QSCD Devices (not to be confused with Qualified Trust Services Provider) and choose a device that is currently valid. We ANF AC can also provide you with one.


May a hardware device lose its status as QSCD?

Yes, these devices are audited an may eventually lose their accreditation or its validity, thus involving that the electronic certificate it includes must be revoked


How can I set up the certificate into my system?

Setting up the electronic certificate for CMS into your computer will not be necessary. You will be able to use it online.
