## What is the deadline for the change?

The suspension of managed certificates for custom domains will be enforced from August 15, 2025 to March 15, 2026. The capability to create managed certificates will resume after the migration to the new validation platform is complete.
You're affected if you plan to create new managed certificates for custom domains in Azure API Management between August 15, 2025 and October 30, 2026.

As part of this change, starting January 2026, for Azure API Management to be able to renew (rotate) your existing managed certificate, inbound access is required on port 80 to allow [specific DigiCert IP addresses](https://knowledge.digicert.com/alerts/ip-address-domain-validation?utm_medium=organic&utm_source=docs-digicert&referrer=https://docs.digicert.com/en/certcentral/manage-certificates/domain-control-validation-methods/automatic-domain-control-validation-check.html).

> The suspension period for managed certificates was recently extended to October 30, 2026.

Creation of Azure-managed certificates for custom domains in API Management will be temporarily turned off from August 15, 2025 to June 30, 2026. Existing managed certificates will be autorenewed as long as your API Management service allows inbound traffic from DigiCert IP addresses on port 80 and DNS is properly configured.
