A Foreign National Digital Signature Certificate (DSC) is a digital certificate issued to non-resident individuals or foreign entities who are involved in e-commerce or e-filing in India. It is used to authenticate and secure electronic transactions and communication.
Foreign National DSC is used for signing documents electronically, and e-filing in India.
To obtain a Foreign National DSC, the applicant needs to submit their identity and address proof documents along with a completed application form to a certifying authority in India. The certifying authority then verifies the applicant’s details and issues the digital signature certificate. The foreign national can use this certificate to sign electronic documents and transactions in India.
