This CAcert sub-policy extends the Organisation Assurance Policy ("OAP") by specifying how Organisation Assurance is to be conducted by the assigned Organisation Assurer ("OA") under the supervision of the Organisation Assurance Officer ("OAO") for entities within the defined scope.
This sub-policy is applicable
to organisations registered with the Trade Office Registry as tabled in
paragraph 3.1 of this sub-policy:
This section describes any scope specific requirements that are not otherwise defined in the OAP.
Organisation accepted for Assurance under this policy is an organisation or entity registered with a national operating formal Trade Office Registry in the country, as tabled in Appendix I (Trade Office Registries in EU countries and other European countries).
The criteria for adding a country and the national Trade Office Registry:
Every European country has a Domain Registrar for the ccTLD country code under which a company domain may have a domain registration. Domain registration of a organisation domain is checked with national Domain Registry via whois and other means.
The green dot • denotes an accepted registry. The orange dot• denotes a registry being accepted. The red dot • denotes a registry awaiting feedback from that country to be accepted for company registration extracts.
