Individuals can renew e-signatures remotely in the personal accounts of individual entrepreneurs or legal entities

Individuals can apply for renewal of their e-signature remotely through their personal accounts of individual entrepreneurs or legal entities on the Federal Tax Service (FTS) website. To submit such an application, you need a valid certificate previously received from the FTS Certification Center.
In the Information dated August 16, 2024, the FTS reports that it is possible to renew an electronic digital signature at the FTS Certification Center without a personal visit to the tax authority. This option is available to users of personal accounts of individual entrepreneurs and legal entities.

You can renew your e-signature if it was previously received from the FTS Certification Center and is valid when sending the application for renewal.

There are some conditions for remote renewal of your EDS:

  • A new e-signature can only be generated using the same token that was originally received, not a new one;
  • To renew the e-signature, it is necessary to log in to the taxpayer’s personal account using the e-signature previously received from the FTS Certification Center. The FTS reminds us that to obtain an e-signature for the first time, an individual must personally contact the nearest FTS Certification Center as an individual entrepreneur or the head of a legal entity.
