Venezuela: Certificate Validity Prolonged to Unlimited

Certificates issued through the SIGESTEL platform previously carried a standardized one-year expiration date. Under the new system, newly issued certificates will no longer have an expiration date and will remain valid indefinitely.

Existing certificates will continue to be valid until the expiration date shown on each document. Once an existing certificate expires, a new certification must be requested through the platform.

The reissued certificate will carry the updated indefinite validity and will not require future renewals under this provision.
