When you first purchase an Extended Validation certificate, you will be contacted by GlobalSign directly. The entire authorisation and set up process generally takes around 1-2 weeks. GlobalSign will need to be able to verify the following:
- The Certificate Approver's identity, title, and employment through an independent source.
- That the Certificate Approver is authorized to obtain and approve EV certificates on behalf of the Organization. This can be verified through one of the following methods:
o A Lawyer's Opinion Letter
o A Corporate Resolution
o Directly contacting the CEO, COO, or similar executive at the organization and confirming the authority of the organizational contact.
GlobalSign must contact the Certificate Approver using an independently-verified telephone number. During this verification call, GlobalSign must verify the following:
- The name of the Certificate Requester identified in the certificate request and his or her authority to obtain the Extended Validation certificate on behalf of the organization.
- Knowledge of the company's ownership and right to use the domain identified in the certificate request.
- Approval of the Extended Validation SSL Certificate request.
- Acknowledgement of signature of GlobalSign SSL Certificate Subscriber Agreement that includes all Extended Validation terms and conditions.
