Supporting Information:
Before VeriSign, Thawte or Comodo can issue your Digital
Certificate, we authenticate that your organization
actually exists. We can do this using available online
tools. We need to do this to verify that :
- we are issuing it to the correct company.
- the company owns the internet domain name in
the request.
- the company is registered in one or more
countries.
- the registered company name is the same as the name
on the certificate request.
If all the
supporting information is available online, then your
certificate will be issued immediately. If it is not,
there maybe additional steps to be completed including the
provision of supporting documentation as outlined below:
The precise
documentation depends on your country and type of
organization. It's most important that you get the
documentation that proves your
registration with national,
provincial or state authorities before you make your request,
because that is the documentation that will determine the
precise organization name you ask for in the certificate.
The links below take you to
detailed descriptions of the documents we need. To ensure
efficient processing of your request, make sure that you have
the correct company name documentation. Your
registered company name, locality (city/town),
state/country where your company is registered, must
match the documentation which you send us exactly.
It is easier to get it right if you have the documentation in
hand first!
1.
Proof of
Organisational Name
(Your certificate request must contain a company name
exactly as stated in your Government issued document.)
Examples are:
- Articles of Incorporation
- Business License
- Certificate of Formation
- Doing Business As
- Fictitious Name Statement
- Registration of Trade Name
- Charter Documents
- Partnership Papers
2.
Proof of
Right to Use Domain
(The common name field in your certificate request must be for
this domain owned by your organization and must be the domain
you want to secure)
3.
Proof of
Organisation Telephone Number
- You may need to send us a telephone bill/account that lists
your Organization Name and telephone number.
Note:
If you believe that Shiftreload will be unable to obtain a
telephone number for your organization through a trusted third
party source, we encourage you to fax us one of the above
documents before receiving notice from us to do so. This will
help us to process your order faster.
