## Root store status

| Root store | Status | Trusted for TLS | Distrust for TLS after | Details |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Chrome | Included | Yes | 2027-06-14 | - |
| Mozilla | Included | Yes | - | Trust bits: Websites; EV policy OIDs: 2.23.140.1.1; First included in: 3.114 / 142 |

Chrome stops trusting TLS certificates under this root whose SCTs are dated after 2027-06-14 (sct_not_after). Mozilla treats it as an EV root for policy OID 2.23.140.1.1.

## Intermediate CAs issued by this root

The CCADB lists no intermediate CA certificate signed directly by SwissSign RSA TLS Root CA 2022 - 1.


## Cross-signed versions

1 certificate(s) in the CCADB have the same subject and public key as SwissSign RSA TLS Root CA 2022 - 1 but a different issuer. A server can send one of them so that clients which trust the issuing root, but not SwissSign RSA TLS Root CA 2022 - 1, can still build a chain.

## What happens when it expires

SwissSign RSA TLS Root CA 2022 - 1 is valid until 2047-06-08, about 20.6 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. Root programs can stop trusting it before it expires: Chrome 2027-06-14.
