"No certificate found pending download with this data"

Review the data entered:

  • Document type
  • Number
  • Document code
  • Personal code

Be careful with upper and lower case.

If the data is correct, it is because you are trying to download the idCAT for the second time and you no longer have anything pending.

"Your certificate has already been downloaded..."

"The document code and/or personal code you entered are incorrect"
