"Trusted for TLS" means the store includes the root with the server-authentication trust bit (Mozilla "Websites", Apple serverAuth, Microsoft Server Authentication EKU). Microsoft "NotBefore" means only certificates issued before a cutoff date are still trusted. "Constrained" means the store applies extra restrictions.

Intermediate CAs issued by this root
The CCADB lists 14 intermediate CA certificates signed directly by Certinomis - Root CA: 6 currently valid, 5 expired and 3 revoked (revoked includes those whose parent was revoked).
Showing 14 of 14: valid certificates first, newest first. Each name links to its crt.sh entry by SHA-256; an arrow marks a cross-certificate for another root on this site.

Cross-signed versions
No certificate in the CCADB has the same subject and public key as Certinomis - Root CA with a different issuer, so a client has to carry Certinomis - Root CA itself in its root store to trust it.
CRL and OCSP addresses
In the root certificate
Certinomis - Root CA itself contains no CRL Distribution Points and no OCSP (Authority Information Access) extension. That is normal for a root: clients trust it directly and do not check its own revocation status.
Used by the intermediates it issued
Addresses found in the CRL Distribution Points and OCSP fields of the 6 valid intermediates signed by Certinomis - Root CA; the number in brackets is how many of them use each address.
- CRL:
http://crl.igc-g3.certinomis.com/RACINE_G3/crl/AC_Racine_G3-crl-1.crl(6)
None of the valid intermediates under this root lists an OCSP responder.
What happens when it expires
Certinomis - Root CA is valid until 2033-10-21, about 6.9 years after this data snapshot (2026-11-10). From that day, browsers and operating systems that check trust-anchor expiry stop accepting chains that end at this root, so any certificate that can only chain to it fails validation. Android is a known exception: it does not enforce the expiry date of trust anchors.
Check whether your device trusts it
Each platform keeps its own root store. The commands below look up Certinomis - Root CA by common name (Certinomis - Root CA) or fingerprint. The store status in each heading comes from the CCADB snapshot; your device can differ if it is out of date or managed by an administrator.
macOS (Apple store: Removed)
Search the system roots keychain by common name. -Z prints the SHA-256 hash, which must match the fingerprint on the last line.
security find-certificate -a -c "Certinomis - Root CA" -Z \
/System/Library/Keychains/SystemRootCertificates.keychain | grep "SHA-256"
# SHA-256 hash: 2A99F5BC1174B73CBB1D620884E01C34E51CCB3978DA125F0E33268883BF4158
Windows (Microsoft store: Included · Trusted for TLS)
Windows identifies roots by SHA-1 thumbprint. It installs third-party roots on demand through Automatic Root Certificates Update, so "not found" can also mean the root has not been needed yet; certutil -generateSSTFromWU roots.sst downloads Microsoft's full list.
certutil -verifystore Root 9D70BB01A5A4A018112EF71C01B932C534E788A8
Linux (ca-certificates follows Mozilla: Removed)
Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora and RHEL build their ca-certificates package from Mozilla's root store. Use trust list on p11-kit systems, or search the PEM bundle on Debian and Ubuntu.
# Fedora / RHEL / Arch (p11-kit)
trust list --filter=ca-anchors | grep -iF -A2 "Certinomis - Root CA"
# Debian / Ubuntu (ca-certificates)
openssl crl2pkcs7 -nocrl -certfile /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt \
| openssl pkcs7 -print_certs -noout | grep -iF "Certinomis - Root CA"
Java
Java ships its own cacerts keystore; JDK 9 and later accept -cacerts and the default store password is changeit. Search for the SHA-256 fingerprint in colon form.
keytool -list -cacerts -storepass changeit | grep -i "2A:99:F5:BC:11:74:B7:3C:BB:1D:62:08:84:E0:1C:34:E5:1C:CB:39:78:DA:12:5F:0E:33:26:88:83:BF:41:58"
Android
Android's system store is maintained by Google separately from the four CCADB stores above. Open Settings → Security & privacy → More security settings → Encryption & credentials → Trusted credentials → System (menu names vary by vendor and version) and look for Certinomis → Certinomis - Root CA.
Which root does my site chain to?
List the chain your server sends and compare the last issuer with this root; the fingerprint check confirms a local copy.
# show subject (s:) and issuer (i:) of every certificate the server sends
openssl s_client -connect example.com:443 -servername example.com -showcerts </dev/null 2>/dev/null \
| grep -E '^ *[0-9]+ s:|^ *i:'
# subject and SHA-256 fingerprint of the downloaded PEM file
openssl x509 -in certinomis-root-ca.pem -noout -subject -fingerprint -sha256
# sha256 Fingerprint=2A:99:F5:BC:11:74:B7:3C:BB:1D:62:08:84:E0:1C:34:E5:1C:CB:39:78:DA:12:5F:0E:33:26:88:83:BF:41:58
