Certificate revocation service
If your ID card is lost, revoke the Citizen Certificate in the revocation service so that no one can misuse it. The revocation service operates around the clock every day of the year.
Revocation service for certificate cards (24 hours)
You can use the revocation service to revoke the certificates on a certificate card. If your personal ID card or smart card is lost, inform the revocation service immediately about the certificates on the card to prevent possible abuse. Once the revocation notification has been received, the certificate holder is no longer responsible. Also inform the revocation service about a certificate if an ID or smart card is no longer needed.
The revocation service operates 24/7 every day of the year.
- Revocation service number 0800 162 622 (calls from Finland are free).
- When calling from abroad, dial +358 800 162 622 (charges made by the local operator will be payable).
Frequently asked questions
Digital and Population Data Services Agency publishes a revocation list as part of the directory service for the certificates it issues. The revocation list is a list of certificates that have been invalidated. The list shows the certificates that have been deactivated, because a card is lost, for example.
Revoked certificates cannot be reactivated. This is to make sure that parties relying on the certificates are able to know the status of an individual certificate throughout its period of validity.
Even if the ID card holder has reported the certificates to be put on the revocation list, the card can still be used as proof of identity and a travel document.
