General CSR Creation Guidelines

In order to make your website secure and purchase an SSL Certificate, you must first generate a CSR (Certificate Signing Request) for your server. After the payment system will suggest to place it at your service control panel, in SSL certificates tab.

A CSR is an encoded file that contains information that identifies your company and domain name.


To generate CSR, enter the requested information:
  1. Country;
  2. State/Province;
  3. Locality/City;
  4. Organization;
  5. Organizational Unit;
  6. Common Name.
General Points to remember creating your CSR:
  1. All information must be entered in Latin letters.
  2. «Country» is a two-digit code. For Ukraine, it's UA, for Russia - RU. For other countries, see this list of «Country codes».
  3. «State» and «Locality» are the full names, e.g. «Kharkovskaya Oblast», «Kharkov».
  4. «Organization» is your full legal company or personal name..
  5. «Organizational Unit» is branch of your company ordering the certificate, e.g. «SUPPORT». .
  6. «Common Name» is the fully-qualified domain name for which you are requesting the SSL Certificate, e.g. ukrnames.com. .

If you are generating a CSR for a wildcard certificate your common name must start with an * (for example, *.ukrnames.com).
The character (*) assumes any name that does not have a dot character in it.
