You make an initial application at your town hall, they will give you a code which you then use online to obtain the certificate. 

Interesting that Covid certs are being asked for again in certain circles.

The certificates may again be asked for as hospitalization of such cases are again growing around the world.   Spain once again has many such cases.

I had an email from Agencia de Techologia y certification Electronic advising me to renew my digital certificate, can I go to the town hall to renew it or do I have to do it online?  The link they sent doesn’t work, so it means I have to phone them.

I have the same problem, notified that I must renew by 11/2/24, I tried but because my PC was hit by ransomeware, the certificate on my PC was encrypted and is unuseable. I contacted ACCV and after their reply I am at the 2nd level. However they appear a bit strange and seem to to have their knickers in a bit of a twist (told me I had 70 days to do this because the validity is now 30 months instead of 3 years?) . Impossible to make an appointment with the town hall ( I need a Padron Cert) and the town hall PRU site does not have appointments available either. I see that SUMA can also make a new certificate and login so that I can obtain my pin. We will go together as my wife is also interested in obtaining the digital cert.

So we will go there on Tuesday, no appointment necessary!

Thanks M, let me know how you get on. I’m in the UK at the moment, but my friend will pop in to our local SUMA Office in Playa Flamenca, as her’s expiring the beginning of March too. Thanks again.

We went to the SUMA office in Torrevieja and got a ticket from the machine in the "Not having an appointment category"..

Our number came up and we went to the relevant desk. We explained what we wanted "Clave" and after providing our details we were given appointments for next Wednesday with 30 minutes alloted each. I don't see why they could not have done this immediately instead of making us come back next week, with its associated problems of going into Torrevieja etc.

Make a "Cita Previa"  online with SUMA,  you will at least save an ulteria visit.

This won't help you now given what happened to your computer, however I keep a copy of my digital certificate on a flash drive in the house just in case I suffer some form of catastrophic IT failure.

I had to renew mine in October (which would suggest to me I originally got in Oct-20 which seems so long ago - I got it at the town hall in Playa Flamenca have booked an appointment online. At that time you had to stand outside the town hall until you were called in as we were still in the midst of the COVID pandemic - thankfully the weather on the day in question was lovely as I recall!)

While it's only 4 or so months ago since I renewed, the instructions sent via email worked and it was a relatively quick process to do. One thing it took me a short time to realise is the new certificate doesn't overwrite the old one - but it does invalidate it. So, unless you delete the old certificate from the computer, it always tries to apply the now invalid old one and doesn't let you log-in to whichever service you are trying to access.
