Generally speaking your LEI does not have a fixed term and on initial issue will be valid for 12 months.
Subsequently, the authentication data will need to be validated or updated by the owner of the LEI on an annual basis. The validity of the LEI will then be extended for a further 12 months.
The exact date of the next renewal of your LEI can be checked on the LEIReg portal under MY DATA or LEIs/Data Management. The renewal date can also be checked via the Search section by searching for your corresponding LEI number and by clicking on your company name. Here you will find the indication "Next renewal", which will show you the relevant information.
For more information please see Renewal
The validity of a branch office`s LEI is also 12 months. But its validity is actually determined by the expiry date of the main office`s LEI.
Should, for example, the LEI for a branch office be issued on 1 October 2017 but the LEI of the main office expires on 31 December 2017, the branch office LEI will also expire on that date and would need to be renewed.
