Fine dei 2 anni dei certificati pubblici DV, OV ed EV SSL/TLS
Il settore dice addio ai certificati SSL/TLS pubblici di 2 anni
On February 24, 2026, DigiCert stopped issuing 397-day public DV, OV, and EV TLS/SSL and Qualified Website Authentication Certificates (QWAC and QWAC PSD2). The new maximum TLS certificate validity is 199 days. Read our knowledge base article to learn more about the move to 199-day TLS certificates.
DigiCert implemented 199-day maximum validity to align with the CA/Browser Forum Baseline Requirements and to ensure all systems are fully aligned ahead of the March 15, 2026 industry deadline. For more information, see the DigiCert FAQ on TLS/SSL certificate validity.

Cosa devo fare?
Con la nuova validità massima del certificato di 397 giorni, raccomandiamo di massimizzare la copertura SSL/TLS acquistando i nuovi certificati SSL/TLS pubblici con un Piano pluriennale DigiCert®.
Avviso
As of February 24, 2026, DigiCert TLS certificate orders are 1-year by default. Contact your account manager or DigiCert Support if you’re interested in using the 2 and 3-year plans.
Coverage limitations
CertCentral Subscription accounts and Enterprise accounts with subscription contracts don’t use DigiCert annual plans. See Annual plan limits.
Integrazioni della DigiCert Services API
Per chi usa la DigiCert Services API, è necessario aggiornare i flussi di lavoro API per tenere conto della nuova validità massima del certificato di 397 giorni nelle richieste. Consulta Services API.
Cosa succede se il mio certificato SSL/TLS pubblico di 2 anni non è stato emesso entro la scadenza del 27 agosto?
Gli ordini di certificato SSL/TLS pubblici in attesa con un periodo di validità superiore a 397 giorni saranno automaticamente convertiti in un Piano pluriennale.
Ciò significa:
Il Piano pluriennale conserverà la validità dall’acquisto.
Ad esempio, se hai ordinato un certificato di 2 anni, il tuo Piano pluriennale sarà valido per 24 mesi.
Il primo certificato nell’ordine sarà emesso con una validità massima di 397 giorni.
Per usare la copertura rimanente sull’ordine, devi riemettere il certificato durante gli ultimi 397 giorni dell’ordine.
How does this affect my existing 1-year public TLS certificates?
This change doesn’t affect active certificates with a validity greater than 199 days issued before the February 24, 2026, deadline. These certificates remain trusted until they expire.
For example, on February 1, 2026, you bought a 1-year OV TLS certificate. We issued the certificate on February 3, 2026. When the certificate nears its expiration date, instead of renewing another 1-year TLS certificate, you renew it with a 199-day certificate on an annual plan.
How does this affect my 1-year certificate reissues and duplicate issues?
The shortened maximum certificate lifecycle period of 199 days does affect public 1-year TLS certificates reissues and duplicates. Now, when you reissue or duplicate a 1-year TLS certificate, the new certificate's validity can’t exceed 199 days. This means some reissued certificates may expire before the order expires.
To use the remaining validity included with the order, reissue your certificate during the final 199 days of the order. You may request reissues with a validity of up to 199 days, or until the order expires, whichever is sooner.
On February 23, 2026, we issued your 1-year Basic OV TLS certificate, your original certificate. This certificate has a validity of 365 days and expires on February 23, 2027, at the same time, the order expires.
Order validity term: February 23, 2026 – February23, 2027 (365 days)
Certificate validity term: February 23, 2026 – February23, 2027 (365 days)
On February 25, 2026, the day after DigiCert implemented the new 199-day maximum validity change, you reissue the certificate. This reissued certificate has a maximum validity of 199 days and expires on September 12, 2026.
First reissued certificate validity term: February 25, 2026 – September 12, 2026 (199 days)
On September 9, 2026, you reissue the certificate. This reissued certificate has a validity of 167 days because certificate validity can’t exceed the order validity.
Second reissued certificate validity term: September 9, 2026 – February 23, 2027 (167 days)
If you need to reissue a 1-year public TLS certificate and have questions about what to expect during the reissue, contact your account manager or DigiCert Support before reissuing it.
How does this affect my public TLS/SSL certificate renewals?
The renewal process remains the same. You can reissue a TLS certificate at any time and renew a TLS order up to 90 days before it expires.
Maximum validity period timeline for public TLS/SSL in the CA/Browser Forum
On February 24, 2026, DigiCert began issuing 199-day public TLS certificates in accordance with the new industry requirements. However, the maximum validity for TLS certificates doesn't stay at 199 days for long. In early 2027, the maximum validity is reduced again to 99 days. Then, in early 2029, the maximum validity is reduced one more time to 46 days. To learn more about reducing public TLS certificate validity to 46 days, read our blog, TLS Certificate Lifetimes Will Officially Reduce to 47 days.

1DigiCert's maximum certificate validity is one day shorter than that allowed by the CA/Browser Forum. We do this to avoid exceeding the maximum permitted validity. 2Future release dates are subject to change based on the latest CA/Browser Forum requirements. | |||
