OV SSL Certificates
Organization Validation (OV) SSL certificates provide an extra level of online trust by authenticating the business identity and legitimacy. An organization must prove it owns the domain name it wishes to secure and confirm that it is a legally registered business. The verification process includes a certificate authority (CA) confirming details including company name and location before issuing the certificate.

Validation Requirements
When Sectigo issues an Organization Validation SSL certificate, we will verify your business identity to ensure it is a legal, legitimate entity. Sectigo will issue your digital certificate after verifying your organization through a few steps including confirming your organization’s presence in the registered location, telephone numbers, and domain ownership.
To ensure a seamless process, please verify that all information registered with your state or country is accurate and up to date. This information should match the details provided during checkout and in your user dashboard. Sectigo will then confirm that your organization is legally registered and actively operating at the specified location.
Sectigo will verify that your organization is legally registered in the state or country you have provided. We will confirm that you have a legitimate physical presence within the area registered. We can typically verify this information through a government database. Should additional information be required, we will notify you.
To receive an OV certificate, you must have a registered active telephone listing that is verifiable by an online telephone directory. It is important that your listing matches the exact business name and physical address that has been provided and verified.
In this step, we will confirm that the domain you are registering the certificate for is in fact owned by your organization. To do this, we will start by searching the internet database that houses domain registrar information, WHOIS.
The final step of the verification process is simple. We will call the telephone number associated with your organization to verify ownership and order. This brief call only requires that you or an authorized site administrator be available to answer.
Intuitive Dashboard

An OV SSL certificate will secure an organization’s domain but requires a CA to verify multiple details about the organization before issuance. Throughout the validation process an organization must prove they own the domain they are wishing to secure and that they are a legitimate business. To prove this they must verify specific details about the business including location and phone number.
Organization Validation certificates have a more in-depth verification process when compared to Domain Validation (DV) certificates. Organizations must prove they are a legitimate business and own the domain they are trying to secure whereas a DV SSL only requires proof of domain ownership. A DV certificate works for internal sites and test servers while OV certificates are a suitable option for public-facing websites that represent companies or organizations. A DV SSL can be issued in minutes but an OV SSL is typically issued within 1-3 business days. Both types provide the padlock in the address bar.
At Sectigo®, an OV SSL starts at $133.33 for the single domain option when you choose a six-year subscription. The cost goes up for Multi-Domain and Wildcard certificates.
Multi-year plans provide instant savings and consistent coverage in a simplified, long-term solution. While you will have to reissue your certificate each year per industry standards, you're guaranteed the lowest price today, and locked in with coverage for multiple years.
