eIDAS Certificates

Qualified eIDAS certificates are essential for ensuring compliance with the European Union's eIDAS regulation, which governs electronic identification, authentication, and trust services. These certificates provide a high level of security and legal assurance, holding the same legal effect as a handwritten signature.

The regulation mandates that these certificates be stored on qualified signature creation devices (QSCDs) and must be issued and managed by a Qualified Trust Service Provider (QTSP).

Sectigo’s eIDAS-compliant certificates enable individuals and organizations to digitally sign and seal documents, ensuring authenticity, integrity, and non-repudiation. Additionally, these certificates allow for time-stamping, helping to prove that a document existed at a specific moment in time. With Sectigo’s eIDAS certificates, businesses can confidently meet regulatory requirements while enhancing security in electronic transactions and communications.

Key Information on eIDAS Certificates

eIDAS Certificates can be used on a wide range of signing solution platforms. Certs issued by Sectigo are trusted by qualified trust service providers in each member nation. Most common file formats are supported, including Adobe PDF and Microsoft Office.

There are two main types of eIDAS certificates:

  1. The certificate in the name of an individual used for document signatures
  2. The certificate in the name of an organization used for document seals
  3. Both types come with an unlimited number of signatures

Validation is an important part of the eIDAS certificate issuing process. As such, Sectigo has adopted stringent validation policies and procedures to strengthen the security of certificate operations and validation processes.

Sectigo verifies the following:

  1. The identity of the key holder, the subject named in the certificate
  2. The identity and address of the entity to confirm its physical existence
  3. That the entity has authorized the issuance of the certificate

The validation work is done by Sectigo. You are required to respond to emails, follow instructions and provide the requested documents.

Sectigo aims to promptly complete your order while adhering to strict validation standards. To ensure the integrity of the certificate, Sectigo will not issue a certificate that has not passed validation.

After you have submitted the required documents, Sectigo will validate the information and identity. The validation process may take 1-5 business days. You will be notified when the validation process is complete. Once the certificate is issued, it will be installed on a USB token and mailed to you. The arrival time depends on your location and shipping methods. You will receive tracking information via email.
