certifi-icpbr 2020.4.2

certifi + ICP Brasil

This package is meant to act as a drop-in replacement to certifi for use with requests that includes all of the same Mozilla root CA certificates, but also includes all of the ICP Brasil root CAs made available here.

The reason why this package exists is that for regulatory and political reasons, many Brazilian government websites use the country-specific ICP Brasil certification scheme, which is not distributed by default by major browsers and operating system distributions. This causes a lot of problems for developers that need to programatically interact with those services.

This is an example of the sort of issue you’ll encounter by default:
