To make life easier for citizens, the Digital CPF was created. Aiming at a better way for people to have one of the most important documents in the palm of their hand.

Have you ever imagined being able to carry your fully digital CPF inside your smartphone? Stick with us as 100Tech will tell you all about owning one! Check out.

Have you heard of the new digital CPF? It is an app that allows access to data related to the registration of individuals.

Brazilians who have the application on their cell phones will be able to leave the physical version of the CPF at home, as both have the same value. 

In addition to allowing your identification, the digital CPF notifies important information and solves any doubts through a chatbot within the platform.

One of the main points is that you always have your digital CPF at hand as it is available directly in your smartphone application. 

As mentioned before, the digital CPF is basically the electronic version of the physical CPF, that is, regarding portability, both have the same validation.

Theoretically, this is an 11-digit number, which, as a rule, represents the citizen from birth.

In unique cases, and subject to judicial authorization, this numbering can be changed. 

Since 2011, the Federal Revenue has stopped issuing the CPF on plastic cards. Since then, citizens have only received their CPF identification number, which can be consulted online.

Through the website of the Federal Revenue, it is still allowed to issue the proof of registration. 

It is worth remembering that this is purely optional, since the presentation of a physical proof of the CPF is not completely mandatory.

In addition, your registration number is on other documents, such as, for example: RG and CNH, if you have the digital CPF, on your cell phone.

The issuance of the 2nd copy of documents is generally avoided. Because it generates expenses, takes up your time and is a complete inconvenience depending on the demand of the local gas station.

By saving the documents and updating to the digital method, the chances of losing your document and needing to issue a new copy are much smaller.

In addition to being more modern, presenting your digital version is also more practical.

The new digital CPF app is a very important step in the digitization of documents across the country. Its process has reduced fraud and impersonation.

In addition, the digital document is a unification of several other documents in the country. This means, in the future, having all your data in one place.

If possible, track your CPF digitally and also pay attention to your data on the internet. 

So far, the Digital CPF can only be acquired by those who have a National Driver's License (CNH).

The digital CPF is the online version of the document issued by the Federal Revenue. It can be accessed through an app made available by the government and replaced by the CPF card.

However, the digital CPF is not for online use when validating legal processes, for example. Just being an extra facility for your day-to-day. 

However, the e-CPF works precisely for validation in the virtual world. With it, you sign digital documents with legal validity and in a secure way and validated by law.

The e-CPF works through a cryptographic key, which can be inserted into computers, chip cards or tokens. No one but the user can access this key.

That way, you can do all the procedures online, not needing to present the official document, in a less bureaucratic way. 

Anyone can have the document in a practical way and 100% online. It also applies to companies that want to issue the e-CNPJ. However, you must apply to one of the certification authorities.

The only caution needed here is to make sure you interact with reputable companies who will handle all your data respectfully.
