I had the same problem and still have. Some of my customers require a
trusted certificate from a well known CA. I called many Cas, but did
not get a certificate. The reason is: I am a single entrepreneur
running an engineering office – not a registered company. Certificates
are not issued to private persons. Otherwise every bad guy could also
get one.
Bad guys may have some loosely registered business. That argument is
ridiculous. And really bad guys get their certificates at places where
no documents are required.
Take a look at:
https://support.certum.eu/en/code-signing-required-documents/
Al least the "standard code signing" does explicitly mention
individuals. Ask their support what documents are required for EV
certificate.
Hint: at https://www.sslmentor.de/ssl/code-signing there are lower rates
for the same certificates.
