FAQ Question

What Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) should I use when I apply for a FATCA certificate?

FAQ Answer

The FATCA program does not provide guidance on the FQDN you should use; therefore you may choose any Fully Qualified Domain name.  However, IdenTrust requires that the FQDN is owned or controlled by your organization and that is not an internal name. You can choose a subdomain name from a domain name you own/control. For example, if you own the domain name “mydomain.com”, you could choose “fatca.mydomain.com”.

You must not use an internal name such as: myorganization.internal, myorganization.localhost, or myorganization.example.
