6 Draft ETSI EN 319 411-2 V2.2.0 (2017-08)
Introduction
The Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1] establishes a legal framework for electronic signature and electronic seal and
for website authentication services. These concepts can be commonly achieved by using cryptographic mechanisms.
Electronic signatures and seals implemented by this way are digital signatures. Cryptographic mechanisms are generally
supported by a trust service provider (TSP) issuing public key certificates, commonly called a certification authority
(CA).
By providing general policy and security requirements for trust service providers issuing certificates, the part 1 of the
series ETSI EN 319 411-1 [2], is aiming to meet the general requirements of the international community to provide
trust and confidence in electronic transactions including, amongst others, requirements from Regulation (EU)
No 910/2014 [i.1] and from CA/Browser Forum [i.3].
The present document incorporates the general policy and security requirements as specified in ETSI EN 319 411-1 [2]
and adds further requirements in order to meet the specific requirements of Regulation (EU) N° 910/2014 for TSPs
issuing EU qualified certificates for electronic signatures and/or EU qualified certificates for electronic seals and/or EU
qualified certificates for website authentication in accordance with but not limited to Articles 19, 24, 28, 38 and 45 of
Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1].
Bodies wishing to establish policy requirements for TSPs issuing certificates in a regulatory context other than the EU
can build their specifications on the general policy requirements specified in ETSI EN 319 411-1 [2] to benefit from
global best practices, and specify any additional requirements in a manner similar to the present document.
Conformance to the present document on its own does not imply that the TSP, nor the certificates issued by the TSP, are
qualified in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1].
ETSI
7 Draft ETSI EN 319 411-2 V2.2.0 (2017-08)
1 Scope
The present document specifies policy and security requirements for the issuance, maintenance and life-cycle
management of EU qualified certificates as defined in Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1]. These policy and security
requirements support reference certificate policies for the issuance, maintenance and life-cycle management of EU
qualified certificates issued to natural persons (including natural persons associated with a legal person or a website)
and to legal persons (including legal persons associated with a website), respectively.
The present document does not specify how the requirements identified can be assessed by an independent party,
including requirements for information to be made available to such independent assessors, or requirements on such
assessors. The present document however provides in annex B a checklist of the policy requirements specific to TSP
issuing EU qualified certificates (as expressed in the present document) as well as all the requirements incorporated by
reference to ETSI EN 319 411-1 [2] and ETSI EN 319 401 [1], that can be used by the TSP to prepare an assessment of
its practices against the present document and/or by the assessor when conducting the assessment for confirming that a
TSP meets the requirements for issuing qualified certificates under Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1].
NOTE: See ETSI EN 319 403 [i.6] for guidance on assessment of TSP's processes and services.

4.2.5 Certificate policy
The present document defines five certificate policies and allocates a policy identifier for each of them. These policy
identifiers are called "EU qualified certificate policy identifiers"; they are defined in clause 5.3.
The certificate policies are based on the following policies specified in ETSI EN 319 411-1 [2]:
• normalized certificate policy (NCP);
• enhanced normalized certificate policy (NCP+); and
• extended validation certificate policy (EVCP).
The five EU qualified certificate policies are:
1) A policy for EU qualified certificates issued to natural persons (QCP-n) offering the level of quality defined in
Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1] for EU qualified certificates:
- The requirements for QCP-n include all the NCP policy requirements, plus additional requirements
suited to support EU qualified certificates issuance and management as specified in Regulation (EU)
No 910/2014 [i.1].
- If the TSP's implementation of this policy requires a secure cryptographic device, the requirements for
QCP-n include all the NCP+ requirements, plus the additional requirements suited to support EU
qualified certificates issuance and management as specified in Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1].
2) A policy for EU qualified certificates issued to legal persons (QCP-l) offering the level of quality defined in
Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1] for EU qualified certificates:
- The requirements for QCP-l include all the NCP policy requirements, plus additional requirements suited
to support EU qualified certificates issuance and management as specified in Regulation (EU)
No 910/2014 [i.1].
- If the TSP's implementation of this policy requires a secure cryptographic device, the requirements for
QCP-n include all the NCP+ requirements, plus the additional requirements suited to support EU
qualified certificates issuance and management as specified in Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1].
ETSI
11 Draft ETSI EN 319 411-2 V2.2.0 (2017-08)
3) A policy (QCP-n-qscd) for EU qualified certificates issued to natural persons offering the level of quality
defined in Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1] for EU qualified certificates and requiring the use of a Qualified
Signature Creation Device (QSCD). Such policy requires that the private key related to the certified public key
resides in the QSCD:
- The requirements for QCP-n-qscd include all the QCP-n requirements (including all the NCP+
requirements), plus additional provisions suited to support EU qualified certificates issuance and
management as specified in Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1], including those specific to the QSCD
provision.
4) A policy (QCP-l-qscd) for EU qualified certificates issued to legal persons offering the level of quality defined
in Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1] for EU qualified certificates and requiring the use of a Qualified Seal
Creation Device (QSCD). Such policy requires that the private key related to the certified public key resides in
the QSCD:
- The requirements for QCP-l-qscd include all the QCP-l requirements (including all the NCP+
requirements), plus additional provisions suited to support EU qualified certificates issuance and
management as specified in Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1], including those specific to the QSCD
provision.
5) A policy for EU qualified website certificates (QCP-w) offering the level of quality defined in Regulation
(EU) No 910/2014 [i.1] for EU qualified certificates (requiring or not the use of a secure cryptographic device)
used in support of websites authentication:
- When the certificate is issued to a legal person the requirements for QCP-w include all the EVCP
requirements, plus additional provisions suited to support EU qualified certificates issuance and
management as specified in Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1].
- When the certificate is issued to a natural person the requirements for QCP-w include all the NCP
requirements, plus additional provisions suited to support EU qualified certificates issuance and
management as specified in Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1].
Clause 7 specifies a framework for other certificate policies which enhance or further constrain the above policies.
4.3 Other TSP statements
The guidelines identified in ETSI EN 319 411-1 [2], clause 4.3 apply.
4.4 Certification services
The service of issuing EU qualified certificates is broken down in component services presented in ETSI
EN 319 411-1 [2], clause 4.4 for the purposes of classifying requirements.
5 General provisions on Certification Practice

respectively, the requirement for natural person shall apply for QCP-n-qscd.
OVR-5.1-05 [QCP-l-qscd]: all requirements defined for [QCP-l], including all requirements defined for NCP+ in ETSI
EN 319 411-1 [2], shall apply. Where a requirement for NCP+ is specified differently for natural person or legal person
respectively, the requirement for legal person shall apply for QCP-l-qscd.
5.2 Certification Practice Statement Requirements
OVR-5.2-01: The requirements identified in ETSI EN 319 411-1 [2], clause 5.2 shall apply.
5.3 Certificate Policy name and identification
As described in IETF RFC 3647 [i.4], clause 3.3, certificates include a certificate policy identifier which can be used by
relying parties in determining the certificates suitability and trustworthiness for a particular application.
The identifiers for the EU qualified certificate policies specified in the present document are:
a) QCP-n: certificate policy for EU qualified certificates issued to natural persons;
Itu-t(0) identified-organization(4) etsi(0) qualified-certificate-policies(194112)
policy-identifiers(1) qcp-natural (0)
b) QCP-l: certificate policy for EU qualified certificates issued to legal persons;
itu-t(0) identified-organization(4) etsi(0) qualified-certificate-policies(194112)
policy-identifiers(1) qcp-legal (1)
c) QCP-n-qscd: certificate policy for EU qualified certificates issued to natural persons with private key related
to the certified public key in a QSCD;
Itu-t(0) identified-organization(4) etsi(0) qualified-certificate-policies(194112)
policy-identifiers(1) qcp-natural-qscd (2)
d) QCP-l-qscd: certificate policy for EU qualified certificates issued to legal persons with private key related to
the certified public key in a QSCD;
itu-t(0) identified-organization(4) etsi(0) qualified-certificate-policies(194112)

Introduction
The Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1] establishes a legal framework for electronic signature and electronic seal and
for website authentication services. These concepts can be commonly achieved by using cryptographic mechanisms.
Electronic signatures and seals implemented by this way are digital signatures. Cryptographic mechanisms are generally
supported by a trust service provider (TSP) issuing public key certificates, commonly called a certification authority
(CA).
By providing general policy and security requirements for trust service providers issuing certificates, the part 1 of the
series ETSI EN 319 411-1 [2], is aiming to meet the general requirements of the international community to provide
trust and confidence in electronic transactions including, amongst others, requirements from Regulation (EU)
No 910/2014 [i.1] and from CA/Browser Forum [i.3].
The present document incorporates the general policy and security requirements as specified in ETSI EN 319 411-1 [2]
and adds further requirements in order to meet the specific requirements of Regulation (EU) N° 910/2014 for TSPs
issuing EU qualified certificates for electronic signatures and/or EU qualified certificates for electronic seals and/or EU
qualified certificates for website authentication in accordance with but not limited to Articles 19, 24, 28, 38 and 45 of
Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1].
Bodies wishing to establish policy requirements for TSPs issuing certificates in a regulatory context other than the EU
can build their specifications on the general policy requirements specified in ETSI EN 319 411-1 [2] to benefit from
global best practices, and specify any additional requirements in a manner similar to the present document.
Conformance to the present document on its own does not imply that the TSP, nor the certificates issued by the TSP, are
qualified in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1].
ETSI
7 Final draft ETSI EN 319 411-2 V2.2.1 (2018-02)
1 Scope
The present document specifies policy and security requirements for the issuance, maintenance and life-cycle
management of EU qualified certificates as defined in Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1]. These policy and security
requirements support reference certificate policies for the issuance, maintenance and life-cycle management of EU
qualified certificates issued to natural persons (including natural persons associated with a legal person or a website)
and to legal persons (including legal persons associated with a website), respectively.
The present document does not specify how the requirements identified can be assessed by an independent party,
including requirements for information to be made available to such independent assessors, or requirements on such
assessors. The present document however provides in annex B a checklist of the policy requirements specific to TSP
issuing EU qualified certificates (as expressed in the present document) as well as all the requirements incorporated by
reference to ETSI EN 319 411-1 [2] and ETSI EN 319 401 [1], that can be used by the TSP to prepare an assessment of
its practices against the present document and/or by the assessor when conducting the assessment for confirming that a
TSP meets the requirements for issuing qualified certificates under Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1].
NOTE: See ETSI EN 319 403 [i.6] for guidance on assessment of TSP's processes and services.

4.2.5 Certificate policy
The present document defines five certificate policies and allocates a policy identifier for each of them. These policy
identifiers are called "EU qualified certificate policy identifiers"; they are defined in clause 5.3.
The certificate policies are based on the following policies specified in ETSI EN 319 411-1 [2]:
• normalized certificate policy (NCP);
• enhanced normalized certificate policy (NCP+); and
• extended validation certificate policy (EVCP).
The five EU qualified certificate policies are:
1) A policy for EU qualified certificates issued to natural persons (QCP-n) offering the level of quality defined in
Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1] for EU qualified certificates:
- The requirements for QCP-n include all the NCP policy requirements, plus additional requirements
suited to support EU qualified certificates issuance and management as specified in Regulation (EU)
No 910/2014 [i.1].
- If the TSP's implementation of this policy requires a secure cryptographic device, the requirements for
QCP-n include all the NCP+ requirements, plus the additional requirements suited to support EU
qualified certificates issuance and management as specified in Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1].
2) A policy for EU qualified certificates issued to legal persons (QCP-l) offering the level of quality defined in
Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1] for EU qualified certificates:
- The requirements for QCP-l include all the NCP policy requirements, plus additional requirements suited
to support EU qualified certificates issuance and management as specified in Regulation (EU)
No 910/2014 [i.1].
- If the TSP's implementation of this policy requires a secure cryptographic device, the requirements for
QCP-n include all the NCP+ requirements, plus the additional requirements suited to support EU
qualified certificates issuance and management as specified in Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1].
ETSI
11 Final draft ETSI EN 319 411-2 V2.2.1 (2018-02)
3) A policy (QCP-n-qscd) for EU qualified certificates issued to natural persons offering the level of quality
defined in Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1] for EU qualified certificates and requiring the use of a Qualified
Signature Creation Device (QSCD). Such policy requires that the private key related to the certified public key
resides in the QSCD:
- The requirements for QCP-n-qscd include all the QCP-n requirements (including all the NCP+
requirements), plus additional provisions suited to support EU qualified certificates issuance and
management as specified in Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1], including those specific to the QSCD
provision.

OVR-5.1-01: The general requirements specified in ETSI EN 319 411-1 [2], clause 5.1 shall apply.
In addition the following particular requirements apply:
OVR-5.1-02 [QCP-n] and [QCP-l] [CHOICE]:
• If the TSP's terms and conditions does not require a secure cryptographic device, all requirements defined for
NCP in ETSI EN 319 411-1 [2] shall apply. Where a requirement for NCP is specified differently for natural
person or legal person respectively, such requirement shall apply for QCP-n or QCP-l accordingly.
• If the TSP's terms and conditions requires a secure cryptographic device all requirements defined for NCP+ in
ETSI EN 319 411-1 [2] shall apply. Where a requirement for NCP+ is specified differently for natural person
or legal person respectively, such requirement shall apply for QCP-n or QCP-l accordingly.
OVR-5.1-03 [QCP-w] [CHOICE]:
• If the certificate is issued to a legal person, all requirements defined for EVCP in ETSI EN 319 411-1 [2], shall
apply.
• If the certificate is issued to a natural person, all requirements defined for NCP in ETSI EN 319 411-1 [2],
shall apply.
OVR-5.1-04 [QCP-n-qscd]: all requirements defined for [QCP-n], including all requirements defined for NCP+ in ETSI
EN 319 411-1 [2], shall apply. Where a requirement for NCP+ is specified differently for natural person or legal person
respectively, the requirement for natural person shall apply for QCP-n-qscd.
OVR-5.1-05 [QCP-l-qscd]: all requirements defined for [QCP-l], including all requirements defined for NCP+ in ETSI
EN 319 411-1 [2], shall apply. Where a requirement for NCP+ is specified differently for natural person or legal person
respectively, the requirement for legal person shall apply for QCP-l-qscd.
5.2 Certification Practice Statement Requirements
OVR-5.2-01: The requirements identified in ETSI EN 319 411-1 [2], clause 5.2 shall apply.
5.3 Certificate Policy name and identification
As described in IETF RFC 3647 [i.4], clause 3.3, certificates include a certificate policy identifier which can be used by
relying parties in determining the certificates suitability and trustworthiness for a particular application.
The identifiers for the EU qualified certificate policies specified in the present document are:
a) QCP-n: certificate policy for EU qualified certificates issued to natural persons;
Itu-t(0) identified-organization(4) etsi(0) qualified-certificate-policies(194112)
policy-identifiers(1) qcp-natural (0)
b) QCP-l: certificate policy for EU qualified certificates issued to legal persons;
itu-t(0) identified-organization(4) etsi(0) qualified-certificate-policies(194112)

Introduction
The Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1] establishes a legal framework for electronic signature and electronic seal and
for website authentication services. These concepts can be commonly achieved by using cryptographic mechanisms.
Electronic signatures and seals implemented by this way are digital signatures. Cryptographic mechanisms are generally
supported by a trust service provider (TSP) issuing public key certificates, commonly called a certification authority
(CA).
By providing general policy and security requirements for trust service providers issuing certificates, the part 1 of the
series ETSI EN 319 411-1 [2], is aiming to meet the general requirements of the international community to provide
trust and confidence in electronic transactions including, amongst others, requirements from Regulation (EU)
No 910/2014 [i.1] and from CA/Browser Forum [i.3].
The present document incorporates the general policy and security requirements as specified in ETSI EN 319 411-1 [2]
and adds further requirements in order to meet the specific requirements of Regulation (EU) N° 910/2014 for TSPs
issuing EU qualified certificates for electronic signatures and/or EU qualified certificates for electronic seals and/or EU
qualified certificates for website authentication in accordance with but not limited to articles 19, 24, 28, 38 and 45 of
Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1].
Bodies wishing to establish policy requirements for TSPs issuing certificates in a regulatory context other than the EU
can build their specifications on the general policy requirements specified in ETSI EN 319 411-1 [2] to benefit from
global best practices, and specify any additional requirements in a manner similar to the present document.
Conformance to the present document on its own does not imply that the TSP, nor the certificates issued by the TSP, are
qualified in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1].
ETSI
7 ETSI EN 319 411-2 V2.2.2 (2018-04)
1 Scope
The present document specifies policy and security requirements for the issuance, maintenance and life-cycle
management of EU qualified certificates as defined in Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1]. These policy and security
requirements support reference certificate policies for the issuance, maintenance and life-cycle management of EU
qualified certificates issued to natural persons (including natural persons associated with a legal person or a website)
and to legal persons (including legal persons associated with a website), respectively.
The present document does not specify how the requirements identified can be assessed by an independent party,
including requirements for information to be made available to such independent assessors, or requirements on such
assessors.
NOTE: See ETSI EN 319 403 [i.6] for guidance on assessment of TSP's processes and services. The present
document references ETSI EN 319 411-1 [2] for general requirements on TSP issuing certificates.

4.2.5 Certificate policy
The present document defines five certificate policies and allocates a policy identifier for each of them. These policy
identifiers are called "EU qualified certificate policy identifiers"; they are defined in clause 5.3.
The certificate policies are based on the following policies specified in ETSI EN 319 411-1 [2]:
• normalized certificate policy (NCP);
• enhanced normalized certificate policy (NCP+); and
• extended validation certificate policy (EVCP).
The five EU qualified certificate policies are:
1) A policy for EU qualified certificates issued to natural persons (QCP-n) offering the level of quality defined in
Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1] for EU qualified certificates:
- The requirements for QCP-n include all the NCP policy requirements, plus additional requirements
suited to support EU qualified certificates issuance and management as specified in Regulation (EU)
No 910/2014 [i.1].
- If the TSP's implementation of this policy requires a secure cryptographic device, the requirements for
QCP-n include all the NCP+ requirements, plus the additional requirements suited to support EU
qualified certificates issuance and management as specified in Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1].
2) A policy for EU qualified certificates issued to legal persons (QCP-l) offering the level of quality defined in
Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1] for EU qualified certificates:
- The requirements for QCP-l include all the NCP policy requirements, plus additional requirements suited
to support EU qualified certificates issuance and management as specified in Regulation (EU)
No 910/2014 [i.1].
- If the TSP's implementation of this policy requires a secure cryptographic device, the requirements for
QCP-n include all the NCP+ requirements, plus the additional requirements suited to support EU
qualified certificates issuance and management as specified in Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1].

3) A policy (QCP-n-qscd) for EU qualified certificates issued to natural persons offering the level of quality
defined in Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1] for EU qualified certificates and requiring the use of a Qualified
Signature Creation Device (QSCD). Such policy requires that the private key related to the certified public key
resides in the QSCD:
- The requirements for QCP-n-qscd include all the QCP-n requirements (including all the NCP+
requirements), plus additional provisions suited to support EU qualified certificates issuance and
management as specified in Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1], including those specific to the QSCD
provision.
4) A policy (QCP-l-qscd) for EU qualified certificates issued to legal persons offering the level of quality defined
in Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1] for EU qualified certificates and requiring the use of a Qualified Seal
Creation Device (QSCD). Such policy requires that the private key related to the certified public key resides in
the QSCD:
- The requirements for QCP-l-qscd include all the QCP-l requirements (including all the NCP+
requirements), plus additional provisions suited to support EU qualified certificates issuance and
management as specified in Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1], including those specific to the QSCD
provision.
5) A policy for EU qualified website certificates (QCP-w) offering the level of quality defined in Regulation
(EU) No 910/2014 [i.1] for EU qualified certificates (requiring or not the use of a secure cryptographic device)
used in support of websites authentication:
- When the certificate is issued to a legal person the requirements for QCP-w include all the EVCP
requirements, plus additional provisions suited to support EU qualified certificates issuance and
management as specified in Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1].
- When the certificate is issued to a natural person the requirements for QCP-w include all the NCP
requirements, plus additional provisions suited to support EU qualified certificates issuance and
management as specified in Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1].
Clause 7 specifies a framework for other certificate policies which enhance or further constrain the above policies.
4.3 Other TSP statements
The guidelines identified in ETSI EN 319 411-1 [2], clause 4.3 apply.
4.4 Certification services
The service of issuing EU qualified certificates is broken down in component services presented in ETSI
EN 319 411-1 [2], clause 4.4 for the purposes of classifying requirements.

ETSI ETSI EN 319 411-2 V2.2.2 (2018-04) 6 Introduction The Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1] establishes a legal framework for electronic signature and electronic seal and for website authentication services. These concepts can be commonly achieved by using cryptographic mechanisms. Electronic signatures and seals implemented by this way are digital signatures. Cryptographic mechanisms are generally supported by a trust service provider (TSP) issuing public key certificates, commonly called a certification authority (CA). By providing general policy and security requirements for trust service providers issuing certificates, the part 1 of the series ETSI EN 319 411-1 [2], is aiming to meet the general requirements of the international community to provide trust and confidence in electronic transactions including, amongst others, requirements from Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1] and from CA/Browser Forum [i.3]. The present document incorporates the general policy and security requirements as specified in ETSI EN 319 411-1 [2] and adds further requirements in order to meet the specific requirements of Regulation (EU) N° 910/2014 for TSPs issuing EU qualified certificates for electronic signatures and/or EU qualified certificates for electronic seals and/or EU qualified certificates for website authentication in accordance with but not limited to articles 19, 24, 28, 38 and 45 of Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1].
Bodies wishing to establish policy requirements for TSPs issuing certificates in a regulatory context other than the EU can build their specifications on the general policy requirements specified in ETSI EN 319 411-1 [2] to benefit from global best practices, and specify any additional requirements in a manner similar to the present document. Conformance to the present document on its own does not imply that the TSP, nor the certificates issued by the TSP, are qualified in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1]. SIST EN 319 411-2 V2.2.2:2018
ETSI ETSI EN 319 411-2 V2.2.2 (2018-04) 7 1 Scope The present document specifies policy and security requirements for the issuance, maintenance and life-cycle management of EU qualified certificates as defined in Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1]. These policy and security requirements support reference certificate policies for the issuance, maintenance and life-cycle management of EU qualified certificates issued to natural persons (including natural persons associated with a legal person or a website) and to legal persons (including legal persons associated with a website), respectively. The present document does not specify how the requirements identified can be assessed by an independent party, including requirements for information to be made available to such independent assessors, or requirements on such assessors. NOTE: See ETSI EN 319 403 [i.6] for guidance on assessment of TSP's processes and services. The present document references ETSI EN 319 411-1 [2] for general requirements on TSP issuing certificates. 2 References 2.1 Normative references References are either specific (identified by date of publication and/or edition number or version number) or non-specific.

These policy identifiers are called "EU qualified certificate policy identifiers"; they are defined in clause 5.3. The certificate policies are based on the following policies specified in ETSI EN 319 411-1 [2]: • normalized certificate policy (NCP); • enhanced normalized certificate policy (NCP+); and • extended validation certificate policy (EVCP). The five EU qualified certificate policies are: 1) A policy for EU qualified certificates issued to natural persons (QCP-n) offering the level of quality defined in Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1] for EU qualified certificates: - The requirements for QCP-n include all the NCP policy requirements, plus additional requirements suited to support EU qualified certificates issuance and management as specified in Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1]. - If the TSP's implementation of this policy requires a secure cryptographic device, the requirements for QCP-n include all the NCP+ requirements, plus the additional requirements suited to support EU qualified certificates issuance and management as specified in Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1]. 2) A policy for EU qualified certificates issued to legal persons (QCP-l) offering the level of quality defined in Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1] for EU qualified certificates: - The requirements for QCP-l include all the NCP policy requirements, plus additional requirements suited to support EU qualified certificates issuance and management as specified in Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1]. - If the TSP's implementation of this policy requires a secure cryptographic device, the requirements for QCP-n include all the NCP+ requirements, plus the additional requirements suited to support EU qualified certificates issuance and management as specified in Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1].

ETSI ETSI EN 319 411-2 V2.2.2 (2018-04) 11 3) A policy (QCP-n-qscd) for EU qualified certificates issued to natural persons offering the level of quality defined in Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1] for EU qualified certificates and requiring the use of a Qualified Signature Creation Device (QSCD). Such policy requires that the private key related to the certified public key resides in the QSCD: - The requirements for QCP-n-qscd include all the QCP-n requirements (including all the NCP+ requirements), plus additional provisions suited to support EU qualified certificates issuance and management as specified in Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1], including those specific to the QSCD provision. 4) A policy (QCP-l-qscd) for EU qualified certificates issued to legal persons offering the level of quality defined in Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1] for EU qualified certificates and requiring the use of a Qualified Seal Creation Device (QSCD). Such policy requires that the private key related to the certified public key resides in the QSCD: - The requirements for QCP-l-qscd include all the QCP-l requirements (including all the NCP+ requirements), plus additional provisions suited to support EU qualified certificates issuance and management as specified in Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1], including those specific to the QSCD provision. 5) A policy for EU qualified website certificates (QCP-w) offering the level of quality defined in Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1] for EU qualified certificates (requiring or not the use of a secure cryptographic device) used in support of websites authentication: - When the certificate is issued to a legal person the requirements for QCP-w include all the EVCP requirements, plus additional provisions suited to support EU qualified certificates issuance and management as specified in Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1]. - When the certificate is issued to a natural person the requirements for QCP-w include all the NCP requirements, plus additional provisions suited to support EU qualified certificates issuance and management as specified in Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1]. Clause 7 specifies a framework for other certificate policies which enhance or further constrain the above policies. 4.3 Other TSP statements The guidelines identified in ETSI EN 319 411-1 [2], clause 4.3 apply. 4.4 Certification services The service of issuing EU qualified certificates is broken down in component services presented in ETSI EN 319 411-1 [2], clause 4.4 for the purposes of classifying requirements. 5 General provisions on Certification Practice Statement and Certificate Policies 5.1 General requirements The present document is structured broadly in line with IETF RFC 3647 [i.4] to assist TSPs in applying these requirements to their own CP and CPS documentation.
