Well, they are not in the passport chip, so we need to retrieve them from somewhere else. States will have agreements between them so they can easily exchange the certificates through trusted channels so border controls can be sure they got the right CSCA certificates. Multiple States publish their CSCA certificates publicly on their websites, such as is the case for [France](https://ants.gouv.fr/csca) and [Germany](https://www.bsi.bund.de/EN/Themen/Oeffentliche-Verwaltung/Elektronische-Identitaeten/Public-Key-Infrastrukturen/CSCA/Root_Cert_Germany/Root_Certificate_node.html) for example. The ICAO also maintains a Master List of CSCA certificates of many different countries that can be found [here](https://www.icao.int/Security/FAL/PKD/Pages/icao-master-list.aspx). So getting the CSCA certificates is not as easy as the DSCs, but it is not too hard either. +You may have noticed that in the previous answer, we mentionned the DSC is stored in the passport chip itself, so it is easy to retrieve, but what about the CSCA certificates?
