This guide describes how to renew organization certificates used in the DPG solution. At the bottom of the page you can watch a video that walks through the procedure.

Regarding existing certificates

If you already have an active certificate in the DPG solution on the same email address for which you are renewing an OCES3 certificate, please be aware of the following:

As soon as you have downloaded the renewed OCES3 certificate, the certificate must be installed in the DPG solution immediately.

If you do not do this, there is a risk that one or more of your system integrations or secure mail will be affected or stop working entirely.

You can find detailed information from MitID Erhverv about how to order and download organization certificates here:

  9. The Download certificate window is now displayed. A Save as... dialog will probably appear automatically, but if this does not happen, you can select the Download certificate link on the page.

    It is VERY IMPORTANT that you also save the certificate's .p12 file in a safe place, as the certificate file cannot be regenerated. When you have selected a location to save the certificate file, you can optionally change the file name.

    Finish by selecting Save.

  10. Complete the process by selecting Close in the Download certificate window.

    Validate email
