XAdES-A
General Information
ES-A (Archival Electronic Signature) is the signature format that should be used in cases where signed documents need to be stored longer than the validity period of the certificate authority's root/sub-root, OCSP and timestamp certificates.
Archiving is done when the CA’s certificate is near to the end of the validity period or the certificates are revoked or if announced that the used algorithms become invalid or is changed. There is no inconvenience in making archival before the above situations occur. Archival should be repeated by entering timestamp settings published by a new hierarchy by TSP if the validity of the last archive timestamp in the currently signed archive documents is compromised. On the application side, the relevant infrastructure should be provided.
The following table specifies the signature properties that must be included in the signature file for XAdES-A signature format:
| Signature Properties | XADES-A | |
|---|---|---|
| Signed Attributes | Reference/DigestValue | M |
| SigningCertificate | M | |
| SigningTime | O | |
| DataObjectFormat/MimeType | M | |
| CommitmentTypeIndication | O | |
| SignatureProductionPlace | O | |
| SignerRole | O | |
| AllDataObjectsTimeStamp | O | |
| SignaturePolicyIdentifier | O | |
| Unsigned Attributes | CounterSignature | O |
| SignatureTimeStamp | M | |
| CompleteCertificateRefs | M | |
| CompleteRevocationRefs | M | |
| CertificateValues | M | |
| RevocationValues | M | |
| SigAndRefsTimeStamp | ME | |
| RefsOnlyTimeStamp | ME | |
| xadesv141:ArchiveTimeStamp | M |
M: Must - It is mandatory to provide the specified substance. If the substance is not provided, the e-signature conformity assessment will result in a negative.
O: Optional – It is optional to provide the specified substance. If the substance is not provided, the e-signature conformity assessment will not result in a negative.
ME: Must Elective - One of ME's in the same column must be selected.
It is recommended not to use optional attributes unless needed.
The timestamp received from the user's system clock or the owner of the signature application does not guarantee the accuracy of the signing time as it is not signed by a trusted server. For this reason, it is not recommended to use the signing time attribute. If it is used, it must be adjusted so that it is left behind from the timestamp.

* One of the following methods must be selected when verifying the signed document if the signer certificate includes a monetary limit:
- “INVALID Signature” message must be displayed. The description of the error should be reported to the user.
- The monetary limit of the certificate is compared with the monetary limit of the signed document and if the monetary limit of the certificate is sufficient for the monetary value of the signed document, “VALID Signature” message must be displayed.
- In the case where the monetary limit of the certificate is not compared with the monetary limit of the signed document, the user should be warned that the signer certificate has a monetary limit and “VALID Signature” message must be displayed.
