Betreff: [Servercert-wg] Voting Begins for Ballot SC-68: Allow VATEL and VATXI
for organizationIdentifier
This email initiates the voting period for ballot SC-68. Please vote.
Purpose of the Ballot
The EV Guidelines have strict rules in the organizationIdentifier values and
require the country code of all currently-allowed Registration Schemes (NTR,
VAT, PSD) to follow the ISO 3166-1 for the 2-letter country prefix.
The organizationIdentifier language mainly came from ETSI EN 319 412-1 and then
the SCWG made several modifications. However, there is an exception for Greece
specifically for the VAT Registration Scheme that is aligned with Article 215
of Council Directive 2006/112/EC
<https://eur-lex.europa.eu/eli/dir/2006/112/oj> that allows Greece to use the
country prefix "EL". In practice, Greece uses the prefix "EL" to identify
itself next to the VAT number of all Legal Entities
registered/incorporated/established in Greece, and all other European Countries
use this prefix to identify Greek VAT numbers. This can easily be verified in
the VIES VAT number validation website
<https://ec.europa.eu/taxation_customs/vies/#/vat-validation> where Greece is
listed as"EL".
There is also Council Directive 2020/1756
<https://data.europa.eu/eli/dir/2020/1756/oj> amending Directive 2006/112/EC
that requires the prefix "XI" for the identification of taxable persons in
Northern Ireland.
This pull request <https://github.com/cabforum/servercert/pull/473> proposes
updates to the EV Guidelines to allow those additional prefixes. It also fixes
some formatting issues.
The following motion has been proposed by Dimitris Zacharopoulos of HARICA and
endorsed by Ben Wilson of Mozilla and Corey Bonnell of Digicert.
MOTION BEGINS
This ballot modifies the “Guidelines for the Issuance and Management of
Extended Validation Certificates” (“EV Guidelines”), based on Version 1.8.0.
