http://suned.sun.com/US/certification/faq/#recert What is Sun's new Certification Policy?
Beginning with all Sun certification exams taken on or after August 1, 2003, certification offerings from Sun no longer have an expiration date.
...
If a Sun certified professional has already received a certificate and ID card with the printed expiration date, can that professional request another certificate and ID card without an expiration date?
Yes. The certified professional will need to send an email to the
who2contact@sun.com alias to request a new certificate and ID card. Include your name and Prometric Candidate ID number.
