Expirations

Requires XMPT PRO or XMPT ENTERPRISE plan

The XMPT platform automatically calculates expiration periods for certificate documentation.

For those states that do not specify the expiration, our system attaches a 48-month expiration from the date of creation (the valid from date). The system separates exemption certs into two groups for expiration management: resale and other.

The defaults for each are as follows:

Overriding Certificate Expirations

The process for revising the expiration date varies depending on how the cert was created and added to XMPT. When certs are uploaded to the system by the seller, the seller can override the system suggestion and enter any expiration date during the upload process, or by editing the cert expiration date before approving the cert. Details of this process are found on the Uploaded Cert Approval page of this guide.

For certs created by the buyer in XMPT, the seller can override the expiration dates as well. The dates can be adjusted using the pop-up screen that will appear after the cert has been approved. This process is described on the System Cert Approval page of this guide.

Whilst individual states have varying expiration periods, all of them note that a certificate remains valid only when all of the information contained on the cert remains accurate. Given the ease of re-issuing or re-uploading a cert, we strongly advocate for system users to review and update certificate documentation at the frequency listed above, if not sooner.
