What the EV checks cover

Legal existence

The organization is registered and active with the relevant registration authority.

Physical address

The place of business is verified, not only the registered address.

Verified phone number

The CA contacts the organization through a number it has verified independently.

Operational existence

The organization is shown to be operating, for example through its registration age or a bank account.

Authority of the requester

The people who request and approve the certificate are confirmed as authorized.

Domain control

As for every certificate, control of each domain name is validated.

    Up to 100 days

    Certificates and domain validation reuse both drop to 100 days.

  4. From 15 March 2029

Frequently asked questions

What does the certificate authority verify for EV?

Under the CA/Browser Forum EV Guidelines: the organization’s legal existence and identity, its physical place of business, a verified phone number, its operational existence, control of the domain, and the authority of the people who request and approve the certificate.

How do browsers show an EV certificate today?

Since 2019 Chrome and Firefox no longer show the company name in the address bar. The verified organization details appear when a visitor opens the site information or the certificate details.

Can I get an EV wildcard certificate?

No. The EV Guidelines do not allow wildcard EV certificates. Each name needs to be listed in the certificate; for subdomains, OV or DV wildcard certificates are the alternative.

How long does EV validation take?

Usually a few business days, sometimes longer when documents need to be checked. It helps to have your company registration details and a phone number listed in a public directory ready.

How long is an SSL certificate valid?

Since 15 March 2026 a publicly trusted TLS certificate can be valid for at most 200 days. The limit drops to 100 days on 15 March 2027 and to 47 days on 15 March 2029 (CA/Browser Forum ballot SC-081v3). Longer purchase terms are subscriptions in which the certificate is reissued.

Which billing cycles can I choose?

Every plan lists the billing cycles it is offered with. Switch the cycle above the plans to compare prices; longer cycles show the saving against monthly billing when there is one.

How do I pay?

Choose one of the payment methods offered at checkout. Every invoice also stays available in the client area, where you can pay it online.

Where do I manage my service after ordering?

Your service appears in the client area as soon as it is set up. From there you can manage it, pay invoices and open support tickets.
