Repository / Certificate Revocation List

Hongkong Post Repository

"Repository", as defined under the Electronic Transactions Ordinance, means an information system for storing and retrieving certificates and other information relevant to certificates. Hongkong Post maintains a repository that contains a list of accepted certificates (including e-Cert and Bank-Cert) issued under the Certification Practice Statement (CPS), together with the current certificate revocation list. Hongkong Post promptly publishes each certificate in the repository following receipt of the Applicant's confirmation of acceptance of the certificate.

• To view any accepted certificate, click here or through LDAP at ldap://ldap1.hongkongpost.gov.hk
