Hi everyone, If a DID is issued to a legal entity and that entity uses it to sign, do we need to implement the DID and its signature separately from Internet Identity? Is Internet Identity basically an authentication for each individual and cannot it be used as a corporate signature in the context of DID? related: > [@Is Internet Identity considered a DID?](https://forum.dfinity.org/t/is-internet-identity-considered-a-did/28115): > > Hi everyone, Is Internet Identity considered a DID? Internet Identity may not be a DID, since Internet Identity is not registered as a W3C DID method. Internet Identity could be considered a practical implementation of the SSI concept. Are there any plans to register Internet Identity as a W3C DID method? Is it technically possible to register? Is there any reason not to register it? ---

@bartosz > We’re currently using a DID format internally in the context of Verifiable Credentials > [Is Internet Identity considered a DID? - #3 by bartosz](https://forum.dfinity.org/t/is-internet-identity-considered-a-did/28115/3) Could you please explain how you are issuing DIDs? Is it a legal entity DID?
