¿Por qué es importante tener la CURP certificada?
Previously, some versions of the CURP could lack the certification legend, which often caused problems with various procedures. The version certified by RENAPO guarantees that the data is validated with the Civil Registry, ensuring its authenticity and minimizing the risk of fraud.
The certified CURP must include a legend that states "Certified CURP: Verified with the Civil Registry" and have a barcode or QR code for immediate scanning and validation.
¿Qué hacer si mi CURP no está certificada?
If when performing the query your CURP does not appear with the certification legend or an error occurs, it means that your data has not been properly linked with the Civil Registry. In this case, the system will indicate the steps to follow, which generally involve going to the nearest RENAPO office with your original birth certificate and an official ID to carry out the correction and validation of your data.
