Process for requesting, renewing and cancelling certificates

Applying for an electronic certificate 

To apply for an electronic certificate, you will need to apply for a residence permit from Residency Section of the Police Department

The procedure to follow is set out on this page.

Renewal 

The electronic certificates are issued for a maximum of three (3) years.

The residence permits issued by the Police Department may have different validity periods depending on the category of residence permit issued.

 For the “temporary” and “ordinary” categories, the renewal can be carried out alongside the application for and issue of a new residence permit and a new certificate.

For categories of residence permit that are valid for more than 3 years (“privilege” and “joint”), the holder must renew the electronic certificates using the self-service option on the interactive terminal available in the Residency Section of the Police Department.

The Holder authenticates on the interactive terminal by entering their PIN and then renews the certificates directly on the terminal. The renewal process takes approximately 3 minutes and is effective immediately, allowing the electronic certificates to be used without the issue of a new permit. 

Cancellation 

In the event that their card is lost or stolen and their certificates may have been compromised, the user should use the cancellation code sent on the same day as the permit was issued (recorded on the issue slip) to complete the cancellation form which can be accessed online using this link. Requests to cancel certificates must be made as soon as the relevant event becomes known.

In the event that the cancellation code has been lost, the user must visit the Police Department (Residency Section) in person to request the cancellation of the Certificates.
