The procedure for EACAT will be available soon at EACAT.
Due to a change in crypto chip qualification, T-CAT cards issued before April 13, 2023 will no longer be considered qualified certificates as of October 2023.
For this reason, and as it has been reported since November 2022 through different channels (Transmissions from EACAT to the organizations requesting certificates, AOC Blog, social networks, Registration Entities T-CAT, County Councils.. .), all affected T-CAT cards were revoked.
In this regard, the AOC will return the unpaid amount, taking into account the 4-year validity of the cards.
Below you will find answers to questions that may arise related to reimbursement and the steps to follow:
Only qualified card certificates issued between October 1, 2019 and April 12, 2023 are affected .
In other words, the T-CAT that are revoked and subject to reimbursement are the following:
- T-CAT of Public Employee
- T-CAT of Public Worker
- T-CAT of Representative
- T-CAT of Pseudonym
The T-CAT cards issued from 13 April 2023 already have the new cryptographic chip. Therefore, they have not been revoked.
These certificates are not affected by the cryptographic chip change and have not been revoked. Therefore, they can be used normally. However, new carrier T-CAT are issued with the new chip.
No, they should not be kept.
The part corresponding to the difference between the theoretical period of validity (4 years, on the date of issue of each of the T-CAT) and what it will actually have had on October 1, 2023, based on the public price in force at the time of issue
Late payment interest and VAT are included.
It is not a full refund of the price paid because the T-CAT was able to be used before the revocation due to change of technology of the certificate.
