Hi yassir, Only root CAs have self signed CA certificates. This CA certificate is signed with the private key associated to the public key it icludes. If a root CA signs a new certificate for a subCA, the new certificate is a CA certificate because it was signed by a private key owned by a different entity (in this case the root CA).
