European Digital Identifier with Cl@ve/FNMT (use your EU identity)

Without a digital certificate, you depend on in-person appointments. We guide you.

I explain how to set up your Cl@ve/FNMT so you can identify yourself at public services in other EU countries (eIDAS). Good if you live, study or handle admin abroad and don’t want to carry stacks of paper.

Guía completa

What you need to have at hand
  1. DNI o NIE en vigor (con el número de soporte de tu tarjeta).
  2. Móvil con SMS y correo electrónico.
  3. DNIe con PIN o certificado digital FNMT de Persona Física si quieres alta avanzada sin pisar oficina.
  4. Un PC con navegador compatible y el Configurador FNMT si vas a emitir/instalar el certificado.
Documentation
  • DNI o NIE/TIE tal cual aparece en la tarjeta.
  • Número de soporte del documento (ese código en el reverso de DNI/TIE).
  • Móvil y email para Cl@ve (te enviarán SMS de verificación).
  • DNIe + PIN o certificado FNMT si haces registro avanzado.
  • Copias de seguridad del certificado (si lo emites) y contraseña de Cl@ve Permanente.
Step by step
  1. Check if you already have a high-level identity.
  2. Issue your FNMT certificate (if needed).
  3. Register in Cl@ve (advanced registration).
    • Go to https://www.clave.gob.es → Registro → Con certificado o DNIe.
    • Provide mobile and email, validate the SMS and finish the registration. You will be at advanced level.
  4. Activate Cl@ve Permanente.
    • In your Cl@ve area, create the Cl@ve Permanente password. This is what many eIDAS services will ask for.
  5. Test that everything works.
    • Log into https://carpetaciudadana.gob.es with Cl@ve Permanente. If you get in fine, you're good. When a European portal asks, select “Usar tu eID nacional (España – Cl@ve)”.
  6. Keep a backup.
    • Export the certificate (if you have it) and store the Cl@ve Permanente password in a secure manager.
Tips that save you time
  • Use Cl@ve Permanente for eIDAS: less friction than PIN and accepted at more sites.
  • Issue the certificate on a clean PC (no overzealous antivirus or corporate policies). Saves you dumb errors.
  • Check expiry of the certificate and renew in advance. If it expires, access will break without warning.
  • If your mobile is foreign, consider using a Spanish number for Cl@ve SMS. You avoid delivery failures.
Common mistakes that can derail the process
  1. Entering the wrong soporte number from the DNI/TIE. Double-check letters and digits exactly.
  2. Trying to install the certificate from a mobile. It won't work. Use a PC.
  3. Using Cl@ve PIN where they require sustancial/alto level. It will be rejected. Go with Cl@ve Permanente or DNIe/certificado.
  4. Incompatible browser or active blockers during certificate issuance. Disable extensions and use Chrome/Edge or Firefox up to date.
  5. DNIe PIN expired. If you plan to use DNIe, renew the PIN before starting.
  1. 1.Check if you already have a high-level credential: go to https://www.sede.fnmt.gob.es/certificados/persona-fisica and see if you have a valid certificate or if your DNIe and PIN are active.
  2. 2.If you don't have one, get the FNMT Persona Física certificate: at https://www.sede.fnmt.gob.es/certificados/persona-fisica/obtener-certificado-software request the code, prove your identity by the available channels and download the certificate (install Configurador FNMT first).
  3. 3.Register in Cl@ve with certificate/DNIe (advanced registration): go to https://www.clave.gob.es, choose Registro, pick "Con certificado o DNIe" and enter your mobile and email. You will get an SMS to confirm.
  4. 4.Activate Cl@ve Permanente: from https://www.clave.gob.es go to your user area and create the Cl@ve Permanente password. This is the method usually accepted as eIDAS "sustancial/alto" level.
  5. 5.Test your Digital Identifier on a public service: log into https://carpetaciudadana.gob.es with Cl@ve Permanente and, when using services from other EU countries, choose "Usar tu eID nacional (España – Cl@ve)" in the eIDAS gateway.
  6. 6.Keep a copy/backup of the certificate and the Cl@ve Permanente password in a safe place. If you change device or lose the cert, you'll have to revoke and re-issue it.
  • DNI o NIE en vigor (con el número de soporte de tu documento)
  • TIE (si eres extranjero con NIE) o DNIe con su PIN si lo vas a usar
  • Móvil que reciba SMS y correo electrónico (los usarás para Cl@ve)
  • Certificado digital FNMT de Persona Física o DNIe (para alta avanzada en Cl@ve)
  • Configurador FNMT instalado si vas a sacar/usar el certificado en tu equipo (https://www.sede.fnmt.gob.es/descargas/configuradorfnmt)
  • Navegador compatible (Chrome/Edge o Firefox actualizados; evita móviles y navegadores raros al instalar certificados)

¿Qué necesito para completar Identificador Digital Europeo sin que me lo rechacen?

Identificador Digital Europeo es gratuito en FNMT / Cl@ve y se puede presentar por cuenta propia. El punto que interrumpe el trámite es que hace falta Cl@ve activa, y si no está dada de alta el registro previo puede tardar días. Además, el formulario tiene 7 pasos y la sesión de la sede caduca antes de terminar si se interrumpe. GovEasy prepara el expediente completo y comprueba los datos antes de tocar la sede, y si no tienes la identificación digital lista, un gestor colegiado del marketplace lo presenta por ti.

  • Cl@ve activa (PIN o permanente)
  • GovEasy (extensión + gestor colegiado)
