Authorization Run-Out and Renewal Date

When an authorization runs out, by its end date or by its units, and the date to submit the renewal.

Open the tool → Runs in your browser. Data leaves only if you deliberately send a problem report from the interactive tool.

Example

Approval start date
2026-06-01
Approval end date
2026-11-30
Units or visits approved
2
Units or visits used so far
1
Units given at each administration
1
Days between administrations
56
Next scheduled administration
2026-07-20
Days ahead to submit the renewal
14 days

Result: The approval ends November 30, 2026, but the 1 unit left cover 1 more administration at 1 per administration every 56 days, so the administration on September 14, 2026 needs a new approval. Submit the renewal by August 31, 2026.

The tool opens with these values already filled in. Replace them with your own.
