Business Validation SSL Certificates
Organization Validation (OV) certificates add your verified company name to the certificate. Before issuing, the certificate authority checks that your organization is registered and active and confirms it by phone, so visitors who open the certificate details can see who runs the website.
Validation usually takes 1-3 working days, faster when your company details in public registers are up to date. OV certificates carry a higher warranty than DV and suit company websites, customer portals and online services.

OV SSL FAQ
01What does Organization Validation check?
Besides domain control, the certificate authority confirms that your organization is legally registered and active, usually from official registers, and verifies it by phone.
02Where do visitors see my company name?
In the certificate details: click the icon next to the address and open the certificate. Browsers show the same padlock for DV, OV and EV, so the name is not shown in the address bar itself.
03How long does OV validation take?
Usually 1-3 working days. It goes faster when your company details in public registers are up to date and you answer the verification call promptly.
04Do I need to send documents?
Usually not: the certificate authority checks public registers. If your company cannot be found there, it may ask for a registration document or a letter from your lawyer or accountant.
05OV or EV?
Both put your verified company name in the certificate. EV adds stricter checks of the organization and the person ordering, and usually a higher warranty. OV is faster and cheaper.
06Can I buy an OV certificate for several years?
Yes, as a 1-5 year subscription. Browsers now limit a single certificate to 200 days (from March 2026, falling to 100 days in 2027 and 47 days in 2029), so during the subscription you reissue the certificate for free, or let automation do it. Automated SSL · Read more about certificate lifetimes
