Renewal and validity rules may change depending on your SRC type and the transportation category you work in. Always refer to official announcements and the current guidance of your training institution for exact dates and obligations; the items below serve as a general checklist.
Why is it important to track the duration?
- Taking part in commercial transportation with an invalid document puts both administrative processes and workflow at risk.
- Renewal trainings and exam schedules may become intensive periodically; making an early plan saves you time.
Practical to-do list
- Process the notes regarding the end or renewal of your document into your digital calendar and document file.
- If you have a plan for a job change or transportation type change (e.g., a different SRC scope), clarify in advance which document you need to update.
- In certain types such as international freight-cargo (SRC 3), the necessity of taking a 35-hour renewal training may arise; you can review the summary information on our SRC 3 renewal page.
Final word
Since document durations vary according to personal situations, it would not be correct to give a fixed "how many years" figure here. You can contact our institution via Contact for registration or consultancy, and recall the general framework from our SRC certificate guide page.
