Has your workshop card been damaged or has a malfunction? Find out more here.

  • Basic information

    If your workshop card is damaged or can no longer be used due to a malfunction, you will need a replacement immediately. You can apply for a replacement card as a business owner or as an authorized representative.

    The replacement card remains valid until the same date as the lost original card - if this would have been valid for more than 6 months. The validity period therefore does not start again from the beginning. If the remaining term of the card is less than 6 months, you will receive a new company card.

    The incorrect workshop card must be returned to the issuing authority.
