What do electronic notification notices look like?

The electronic notification service that AOC provides to the Catalan administrations sends notifications by SMS and e-mail, depending on the contact information provided by the citizen / company when making the procedure related to the notification.

Below we explain what the notification notices that can be received look like.

What is SMS like?

Sender of the SMS

It comes from the alias AOC (Open Administration of Catalonia)

SMS text

The text varies a little depending on the type of recipient (Citizenship, Company...), but in essence the message tells you that you have received an electronic notification and some information:

• The name of the recipient of the notification in case it is addressed to a natural person
• The name of the recipient company if addressed to a legal entity
• the short link to access it*
• the organization that sends it to you
• the notification identifier

*Information about the SMS access link

The SMS contains a short link of the AOC (c.aoc..). When you click on the link you will access the notifications website, you can check that it is a secure site because the web address is preceded by a padlock (if you click on it you can see information about the secure connection) and https://.
