I have passed the AZ-400/305 without the AZ-104, do I need to renew them?

Question

Hello! Last year I had passed both 400 and 305, do I need to renew? Since I don't have the badget, because it's missing the prequisite.

I tried to renew, but it doesn't show to me this option, do I have a time limit? Thanks!

Hi,

You can only renew certifications, not exams.

I recommend you pass AZ-104 prior to October 6, 2024. That way you will earn the two Expert certifications. If you wait until after October 6/13th you will need to pass AZ-305 and AZ-400 again in addition to AZ-104 to earn the certifications.

If you have additional questions/issues related to renewals, a support moderator in Microsoft Credentials forum can help. To contact them, please ask your question using link below. They will respond to your question within 2 business days typically:
