Declare the retirement of a certificate

Consume an active certificate on behalf of a beneficiary, permanently, with the reason and the document that prove the retirement.

  1. Open the active certificate you want to retire.

  2. Under the retirement section, enter the beneficiary's corporate name and CNPJ.

  3. The beneficiary may differ from the certificate's current holder — when it does, both names are published on the record.

  4. Write the reason for the retirement, with at least 20 characters.

  5. Enter the retirement date — it cannot be a future date.

  6. Attach the document that proves the retirement.

  7. Click "Review" to see a summary before confirming.

  8. Check the details in the summary and click "Confirm" — the retirement is permanent and cannot be undone afterwards.

  9. You get a confirmation email even though you declared the retirement yourself — it is the record that it happened, in case you didn't see the confirmation screen through to the end.
