Recertification Deadline *Your recertification deadline can be viewed online anytime (with login) at Certification Status. *Subsequent recertification deadlines are always based on your original certification date, not on when you took your last recertification exam. Recertification Details *To maintain active status, every 24 months CCIEs are required to pass one of the following: any CCIE written exam of their choosing, a CCIE lab exam, or either of the CCDE exams. *CCIE certification automatically extends other Cisco Career Certifications, such as CCNP or CCNA. *Candidates can only apply one passed written exam towards recertification for every 24 month recertification period. *Candidates must wait five calendar days between attempts at the written exam. *Certification candidates are responsible for keeping track of their certification expiration dates. Please plan your recertification accordingly. If your CCIE recertification requirements are not completed on or before the certification's expiration date, your CCIE certification will be suspended for one year. Candidates have one year to recertify their CCIE certification by passing the required written exam. If a candidate does not recertify prior to the one year suspension period, all CCIE certification requirements must be completed again to obtain the certification (pass both the written exam and the lab exam.) *Be sure to use the same ID number you were assigned for your original qualification exam to ensure your profile is updated accurately. If you have any questions about which ID number to use, contact CCIE support.
