Q: How do I create an EV Anchor?
...
Yes, due to slight differences in the industry requirements the set of 'authentic information sources' that Sectigo has to use for organisation validation is different. Whereas for SSL validation an independent information source may be used, for S/MIME only government agency sources and Legal Entity Identifier (LEI) data references are allowed. This means Sectigo has to do re-validation. This is not triggered automatically - it needs to be requested by an MRAO. We strongly recommend that you DO NOT SELECT TO REVALIDATE AN ORGANISATION as this will block the ability to issue SSL certificates as well. Instead, choose to edit an organisation and enter an organisational identifier in the new relevant field...this is typically a VAT number or equivalent. If you do not have this, enter FIXME in the field and the validation team will attempt to find the correct number.
