True BusinessID™ - Collect Required Documentation

GeoTrust True BusinessID web server certificates will enable you to secure your web pages with the same strong 128-bit SSL encryption available from certificates costing twice as much or more.
Every True BusinessID certificate includes enrollment in GeoTrust's exclusive True Site authentication service to assure web site visitors of your business identity. To ensure installation is hassle free, please familiarize yourself with requirements outlined below.

When you request a True BusinessID certificate, GeoTrust will verify the identity of the business entity responsible for the Internet domain name for which the certificate is requested. Before proceeding through the enrollment process, you should know what information you will need to provide in order for their team to complete the verification process.

You must make sure that the following items consistently match in order to have your server certificate order processed:

• The Registrant listed in the InterNIC/WHOIS records for the domain name in question
• The Organization appearing in your "Proof of Organization" documents or DUNS number
• The Organization entered into the CSR (Certificate Signing Request)

After completing the enrolment process, please fax your Proof of Organization information and InterNIC record to 1-770-360-9571. Include your domain name and order ID number on the cover letter. If any of the above items do not match or are not submitted, the processing of your certificate request will be delayed.

Acceptable documents for Proof of Organization include:

• Dun and Bradstreet DUNS number URL: www.dnb.com (www.dnb.ca for Canada).
• Articles of Incorporation
• Business License
• Doing Business As (DBA) registration
• Partnership documentation
• Sole Proprietorship documentation

GeoTrust must receive all of your information before your order can be completed. Once you have submitted these documents, they will not be required again unless the organization or common name changes.

In addition, GeoTrust may contact your state or local government to confirm that your organization is in "Good Standing".
