The mobile-ID certificates issued as of 1 January 2015 are valid for five years.
Mobile-ID certificates cannot be updated:
If certificates are expired, you must contact your mobile operator and replace your mobile-ID SIM card (and reactivate mobile-ID service).
Only one mobile-ID at a time:
One person can have only one certificate pair connected with one mobile-ID SIM card activated at a time. Upon entering into a new mobile-ID contract, the certificates connected with the previous SIM card will be declared invalid via the communication service provider and/or upon issuing a new SIM card.

- When concluding a mobile-ID contract, you may be required to present an identity document.
- Even if your identity document expires, you can continue the service until the end of its validity if you already have a valid mobile-ID contract.
