The present list is the TSL implementation of Polish "Trusted List of supervised/accredited Certification Service Providers" providing information about the supervision/accreditation status of certification services from Certification Service Providers (CSPs) who are supervised/accredited by Poland for compliance with the relevant provisions of Directive 1999/93/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13 December 1999 on Community framework for electronic signatures.

The Trusted List aims at:

• listing and providing reliable information on the supervision/accreditation status of certification services from Certification Service Providers, who are supervised/accredited by Poland for compliance with the relevant provisions laid down in Directive 1999/93/EC;
• facilitating the validation of electronic signatures supported by those listed supervised/accredited certification services from the listed CPSs.

The Trusted List of a Member State provides a minimum of information on supervised/accredited CSPs issuing Qualified Certificates in accordance with the provisions laid down in Directive 1999/93/EC (Art. 3.3 , 3.2 and Art. 7.1 (a)), including information on the QC supporting the electronic signature and whether the signature is or not created by a Secure Signature Creation Device.

The CSPs issuing Qualified Certificates (QCs) listed here are supervised by Poland and may be accredited for compliance with the provisions laid down in Directive 1999/93/EC, including with the requirements of Annex I (requirements for QCs) and those of Annex II (requirements for CSPs issuing QCs). The applicable "supervision" system (respectively "voluntary accreditation" system) is defined and must meet the relevant requirements of Directive 1999/93/EC, in particular those laid down in Art. 3.3, Art. 8.1 , Art. 11 (respectively Art. 2.13, Art. 3.2 , Art. 7.1(a), Art. 8.1 , Art. 11).

Additional information on other supervised/accredited CSPs not issuing QCs but providing services related to electronic signatures (eg. CSP providing Time Stamping Service and issuing Time Stamp Tokens, CSP issuing non-Qualified certificates, etc) are included in the Trusted List and the present TSL implementation at a national level on a voluntary basis.

"List of the lists"

In order to allow access to the trusted lists of all Member States in an easy manner, the European Commission has published a central list with links to national "trusted lists". This central list has been created by the Directorate General for Informatics under the IDABC-programme in close collaboration with Directorates-General Internal Market and Services and Information Society and Media.

Information that can be used to verify the authenticity of the EU "compiled list" of Member States' trusted lists as notified under Decision 2009/767/EC has been published in the C-series of the Official Journal (C 45).

The SSL certificate used to protect the human readable form of the Commission's compiled list ("list of the lists") with pointers to MS trusted lists has been replaced by a new one since March 8. The digest information for the new SSL certificate has been published in the Official Journal of the European Union (C 57).

On 22 December 2011, the Official Journal of the European Union C (C374). updated information with regard to the certificates that verify an electronic signature put by a representative of the Commission to the machine processable version of the 'compiled list'. Since the above-mentioned date, in the process of verification of the signature put to the "compiled list" one of the two certificates published in the Official Journal will be applicable at a time.
