here's one example, the brazil irs https://www.receita.gov.br/

good lucky finding the cert if you didn't download your firefox in brazilian portuguese or didn't register you apple device in brazil. I mean, it is not difficult to find the cert, but it is a pain for travelers.

The problem seems to be "wrong domain", not "CA not recognized". You sure you have the right URL?

i'm mobile. probably got the wrong url. only have bookmarks for the ca certs https://www.gov.br/iti/pt-br/assuntos/repositorio/repositori...

But what do you need these certs for, is there a national website that gets an "insecure" warning if you visit it with a foreign version of Firefox?

yeah, the tax preparation website and others.
