To apply for, or renew, a PKIo SBR certificate, you need an authorization. You will receive this authorisation when you register the Digidentity Certificate Manager product.
The authorisation is valid for 5 years. In the past, this authorisation was issued for 1, 2 or 3 years. When you register or renew the authorisation now, it is always valid for 5 years.
The authorisation is called 'Digidentity Self Service Portal Level 4' in our system.
This authorisation is separate from your actual PKIo SBR certificate. If the PKIo SBR certificate expires, you will receive a different type of email about this.

Company Administrator
A company administrator must take the following points into consideration.
- If you are a company administrator yourself, you cannot approve your own authorisation. You will arrive at a page stating that your request is pending with the company administrator. Click on the option 'Download letters' at the bottom of the screen to create a new letter file.
- If the company administrator of your organisation is unable to approve this authorisation, it may be due to an insufficient 'level of assurance'. The Digidentity Certificate Manager operates at ‘level of assurance 4’, while eHerkenning level 3 is at ‘level of assurance 3’. The applicant should click on 'Download letters' during registration and begin working with the letter(s) of authorisation instead.
