As reported by the government service, a security certificate update will take place in August. To use the benefits of the application and access all the documents contained within it without problems, one action must be performed no later than August 5.<\/p>\n<p>The government service reminds us that renewing certificates in mObywatel is a routine operation that takes place cyclically. The procedure aims to provide greater security for users and better protection of their digital documents.<\/p>\n<h4>Simple Automatic Procedure<\/h4>\n<p>Do not miss the key date, as problems may occur afterward. The entire procedure is child&#8217;s play. Just log in to the mObywatel application, and everything else will be done automatically. However, there is one basic condition: the login must take place by August 5 of this year.<\/p>\n<p>What is worth paying attention to? The messages appearing in the application. As the info.mobywatel.gov.pl service informs, after logging in we can expect a message about refreshing documents. However, this is nothing to be afraid of, because as we read on the government service, it is a standard element of the entire procedure.<\/p>\n<h4>Consequences of Missing the August 5 Deadline<\/h4>\n<p>What will happen if we do not log in by August 5? Problems with using the mObywatel application may arise if we do not log in by August 5, 2026. This is because existing certificates will expire, and regaining full access to all documents will require more effort.<\/p>\n<p>Further steps will depend on which document we want to use. In the case of mDow\u00f3d and the Temporary Protection Document, we will have to repeat the authentication process. How to do this? It will need to be done using the National Node, for example via the Trusted Profile, e-ID, or electronic banking.<\/p>\n<p>It is worth remembering that failure to log in within the designated time may result in other documents in the mObywatel application being invalidated. In that case, it will be necessary to enter the details of each of them and perform the update manually.<\/p>\n<h4>Important Rules for Students<\/h4>\n<p>August 5 is also an important date for students. Students who use the mLegitymacja application must also remember to log in by August 5, 2026. If their document requires refreshing, the mObywatel application will send a direct notification.<\/p>\n<p>If this happens, it will be necessary to visit the dean&#8217;s office of your university and ask for a new QR code to be generated. Such a code will then need to be scanned and the student ID added back to the application. However, if students remember the key update deadline, they will avoid the time-consuming procedure, and their electronic student IDs will remain valid.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Millions of Poles using the mObywatel application must log in by August 5 to automatically update their security certificates and maintain seamless access to their digital documents.
