What Happens When a Credential Is Revoked?
Issuing Authorities have the ability to revoke a credential when necessary (e.g., due to error, policy violation, or status changes).
Does the credential disappear from the recipient’s account?
No. When a credential is revoked, it does not automatically disappear from the recipient’s account. The credential remains visible for record and transparency purposes.
Is a revoked status shown?
Yes. A revoked credential will clearly display a “Revoked” status to indicate that it is no longer valid. This ensures that anyone viewing or verifying the credential is aware that it has been invalidated by the Issuing Authority.
A revoked credential should not be treated as an active or valid record.
