200 → 100 → 47 days

The CA/Browser Forum has decided on shorter SSL lifetimes: 200 days from March 15, 2026, 100 days from March 15, 2027, 47 days from March 15, 2029. Manual renewal is not realistic. FairSSL ACME gives you automatic issuance, renewal and monitoring with set-and-forget DNS validation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to the most common questions about SSL certificates and FairSSL.

RapidSSL, AlphaSSL and Sectigo PositiveSSL are the cheapest DV certificates. They include www + the root domain and offer fast automatic issuance.
The CA/Browser Forum adopted a phased reduction in 2025: 200 days from 15 March 2026, 100 days from 15 March 2027, 47 days from 15 March 2029. Without automation, it becomes an administrative nightmare.
Both require organisation validation. OV displays the organisation name in the certificate details. EV provides the highest level of validation: the CA verifies the organisation's legal existence, physical address and operational status. Some browsers display the organisation name more prominently with EV. EV does not support wildcards.
Yes. Most certificates support SAN (Subject Alternative Names). You can mix single domains and wildcards in one certificate. For example, *.fairssl.dk + *.app.fairssl.dk + legacy.example.com.
With pre-validation, the CA approves your organisation in advance. You can then issue OV/EV certificates instantly for up to 1 year without waiting for a new validation. Thawte and DigiCert support automatic pre-validation. GlobalSign requires us to set it up manually: contact us.
No. EV certificates do not support wildcards. You can add specific domain names as SANs, but not *.domain.com.
If you already use ACME (Certbot, simple-acme, acme.sh) and renew automatically, you are well positioned. If you renew manually, you should migrate to ACME now.
