Organization Validation sits between domain validation and extended validation. The authority verifies your registered company as well as your control of the domain, so your verified organisation details appear inside the certificate itself.
OV is the default choice for company websites: meaningfully more trustworthy than a domain-validated certificate, without the multi-day verification of EV.
Your registered organisation name, city and country are checked against official records and embedded in the certificate for anyone to inspect.
Verification typically completes in one to three business days rather than the week an Extended Validation order can take.
OV certificates carry warranties up to $1.25 million depending on the authority, far above entry-level domain validation.
OV certificates include clickable trust seals such as GeoTrust True Site that display your verified company details to visitors.
Most authorities offer OV wildcards, so one verified certificate can secure your main domain and every sub-domain under it.
Organisation validation satisfies the majority of client, partner and procurement requirements that specify more than basic encryption.
OV verification is lighter than EV but still requires the authority to confirm your business is real. In practice that means your company must be findable in an official registry, and your business phone number must be independently verifiable.
For companies registered in Pakistan we prepare and submit this documentation for you, and follow the order through until the certificate is issued. Most OV orders we handle complete within two working days.
