These checks passed — but they don't clear the site. A clean antivirus result, valid SSL, and a calm server only mean it isn't hosting malware; they say nothing about whether the business is real. This verdict is based on the site's conduct and content, not a malware detection.

It includes links to the Ley de Garantías Mobiliarias, the Reglamento, and the Arancel RGM, plus a working "Ingreso Sistema" login button. The footer lists four phone numbers, the physical address 11 Avenida 03-14 Zona 01, Guatemala City, and the email rgm@mineco.gob.gt.

Infrastructure

The site runs on IP 129.213.174.58 with a valid DigiCert Global G2 TLS certificate that expires in 126 days. One redirect hop occurs but stays within the same domain. External resources load from gmpg.org, cdn.jsdelivr.net, facebook.com, and mineco.gob.gt. The hosting IP carries an abuse score of 0/100 with no reported incidents.

WHOIS data was unavailable in the scan. However, the evidence package confirms rgm.gob.gt is the official domain referenced in government PDFs, MINECO publications, and official Facebook posts dating back years. No recent registration or ownership changes are indicated.

Web Reputation

Our research found zero scam reports, complaints, or negative mentions across general web sources.

  • Yes. rgm.gob.gt presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by DigiCert Inc · DigiCert Global G2 TLS RSA SHA256 2020 CA1, expiring in 126 days. Note that SSL only encrypts the connection — it does not guarantee that the site itself is trustworthy.
