终止 2 年期 DV、OV 和 EV 公共 SSL/TLS 证书

行业弃用 2 年期公共 SSL/TLS 证书

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.

注意

2020 年 8 月 27 日下午 6:00 MDT(8 月 28 日 0:00 UTC)开始,DigiCert 停止颁发 2 年期公共 SSL/TLS 证书。

我需要做些什么?

由于最新规定证书的有效期不能超过 397 天,因此我们建议您通过 DigiCert® 多年计划购买新的公共 SSL/TLS 证书,以最大限度地延长 SSL/TLS 的保障期。

注意

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.

DigiCert 服务 API 集成

如果使用 DigiCert 服务 API,您需更新 API 工作流,以便在您的请求中纳入证书有效期最长不超过 397 天的最新要求。请参阅服务 API

如果在 8 月 27 日截止时,我的 2 年期公共 SSL/TLS 证书还未颁发下来会怎么样?

有效期超过 397 天的处理中的公共 SSL/TLS 证书订单会自动转换为多年计划。

这表明:

  • 多年期计划的有效性从购买之日算起。

    例如,如果您订购了 2 年期证书,则多年期计划的有效期为 24 个月。

  • 该订单中颁发的第一个证书的最长有效期是 397 天。

  • 为了使用该订单的剩余有效期,您需要在订单有效期的最后 397 天内补发证书。

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.

1. Example: Reissuing a 1-year public TLS certificate now
  1. 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)

  2. 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)

  3. 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)

  4. 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.
