Let's Encrypt issues domain validation certificates and anyone with a
suitable domain name (e.g. .com, .net, .org .... ) can get one of these
certificates just by proving control over the domain by using the DNS or "
/.well-known/pki-validation" directory as stated in the CAB Forum baseline
requirements. Country location doesn't matter.

Thank you
