What are the requirements to request a Code Signing Certificate?

DigiCert Code Signing Certificates can only be applied for by a legally incorporated company.

Specifically for the DigiCert EV Code Signing Certificate, the requesting company must have been established for more than 3 years.

In order to issue the Code Signing Certificate, DigiCert will perform a validation process to verify the details of your organization and the person requesting the certificate.
It may be necessary to send documents and confirm by phone to complete the validation.
This is a standard requirement of all Certification Authorities.

DigiCert reserves the right not to issue the Code Signing Certificate if the requesting company does not meet the standard requirements of the CA / BROWSER FORUM:

If the Code Signing Certificate cannot be issued, the amount paid will be refunded.
