And how? francislavoie (Francis Lavoie) July 9, 2026, 5:48pm 4 What information? Why? What are you actually trying to do? Bruce5051 (Bruce) July 9, 2026, 5:49pm 5 Hello @mitgedanken, What information are you seeking to add? What the purpose for adding this information? Also you would actually be requesting a new certificate. Also Let’s Encrypt puts effort in to making certificates small, To help reduce bandwidth and negotiation time for TLS (formerly known as SSL). timelordx (timelordx) July 10, 2026, 2:40am 6 Short answer: No. Long answer: No. Let’s Encrypt only issues Domain Validation (DV) certificates. They don’t offer Organization Validation (OV) or Extended Validation (EV) certificates because those can’t be issued through an automated process. With a DV certificate, the only information that’s included is what’s needed for the CN and SAN fields, which is essentially the site hostname or a wildcard domain. If you need additional information such as an email address, organization name, organizational unit, or country, you’ll need at least an OV certificate. As already mentioned, Let’s Encrypt doesn’t issue those.
