## Certificate validity and expiration
|
||||
|
||||
Maintaining the validity of OpenPGP certificates is essential for the security and reliability of cryptographic communications. Expiration dates play a key role in this process, acting as a built-in check that prompts users to review and renew their certificates periodically.

|
||||
Certificates are composites of components that are linked together using [signatures](../signing_components).
|

|
||||
A certificate can be valid or invalid as a whole. However, even when a certificate is valid, individual components (subkeys or identities) of it can be invalid.
