Certificate Request

According to the market rules, you need a certified e-mail address to send data to AGCS. You may have your e-mail address certified by AGCS.

The certification request procedure is simple and efficient; the costs are EUR 7 plus 20% VAT per address and the certificate is valid for one year as of the date of issue.

AGCS is not an official certification body, and therefore, this certificate can only be used in e-mail correspondence between you and AGCS or with any other e-mail user that trusts the certificate issued by AGCS.

At AGCS, we offer the issuance of a certificate in order to ensure market compliant data transmission and also to give you easy and inexpensive access to a certificate. If you need a certificate please follow the instructions in the document below or contact our Staff.
