EV SSL Certificates
Extended Validation (EV) certificates come with the strictest identity check a certificate authority performs: your organization’s legal, physical and operational existence and the authority of the person who orders. The verified company name, registration number and address are written into the certificate.
Browsers no longer show a green address bar, but EV is still the strongest proof of who is behind a website and comes with the highest warranties. It suits banks, payment services, online shops and government websites. Validation usually takes 1-5 working days.

01Do browsers still show the company name in the address bar?

02What does Extended Validation check?
The certificate authority confirms that your organization is legally registered and active, checks its address and phone number, and verifies that the person ordering is allowed to act for it. It also checks that you control the domain.
03How long does EV validation take?
Usually 1-5 working days. It goes faster when your company is listed in public registers and business directories and you answer the verification call promptly.
04Can I get an EV certificate as an individual?
No. EV certificates are issued to registered organizations: companies, government bodies and non-profits. As an individual, choose a domain-validated certificate.
05Can an EV certificate cover subdomains with a wildcard?
No, wildcards are not allowed in EV certificates. List each subdomain in an EV multi-domain certificate instead.
06Can I buy an EV certificate for several years?
