Intermediate CAs issued by this root

The CCADB lists 2 intermediate CA certificates signed directly by DVV Gov. Root CA - G3 ECC: 2 currently valid, 0 expired and 0 revoked (revoked includes those whose parent was revoked).

Showing 2 of 2: 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.

Intermediate	Operated by	Expires	Status
DVV Social Welfare and Healthcare Service Certificates - G3E	Government of Finland, Population Register Centre’s (Väestörekisterikeskus, VRK)	2041-05-20	Valid

Cross-signed versions

No certificate in the CCADB has the same subject and public key as DVV Gov. Root CA - G3 ECC with a different issuer, so a client has to carry DVV Gov. Root CA - G3 ECC itself in its root store to trust it.

CRL and OCSP addresses

In the root certificate

DVV Gov. Root CA - G3 ECC 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.

What happens when it expires

DVV Gov. Root CA - G3 ECC is valid until 2042-05-05, about 15.5 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 DVV Gov. Root CA - G3 ECC by common name (DVV Gov. Root CA - G3 ECC) 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 The store status in each heading comes from the CCADB snapshot; your device can differ if it is out of date or managed by an administrator.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: Not included)

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 "DVV Gov. Root CA - G3 ECC" -Z \
  /System/Library/Keychains/SystemRootCertificates.keychain | grep "SHA-256"
# SHA-256 hash: 5546A52504FBA74F61FFD4890067529ADE3B9C9D07E502592831CCDA9B369FD3

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 B2142AA969EB0DDB5CE9024684CD850B69E418E5

Linux (ca-certificates follows Mozilla: Not included)

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 "DVV Gov. Root CA - G3 ECC"
# Debian / Ubuntu (ca-certificates)
openssl crl2pkcs7 -nocrl -certfile /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt \
  | openssl pkcs7 -print_certs -noout | grep -iF "DVV Gov. Root CA - G3 ECC"

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 "55:46:A5:25:04:FB:A7:4F:61:FF:D4:89:00:67:52:9A:DE:3B:9C:9D:07:E5:02:59:28:31:CC:DA:9B:36:9F:D3"

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 Digi- ja vaestotietovirasto CA → DVV Gov. Root CA - G3 ECC.

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.
