How much does the electronic signature service cost?
The electronic signature fee is ALL 4,800 for a one-year validity period. The payment can be made with a payment mandate (in this case, the payment mandate must contain the data of the applicant “Name Surname” and not the data of the entity that he/she represents such as NIPT or the name of the entity, since the electronic signature service is a personal service that belongs to the citizen and not the subject)) or online with any type of credit/debit card using the Credins bank module (even if you are not a customer of this bank).

How can I revoke my electronic signature?
The electronic signature revocation procedure is carried out at the request of the person holding the electronic signature. In case that the citizen had an electronic signature as an employee of an institution where he/she no longer works, the request can be done with a written request or with his/her government e-mail, but also with an official letter from the institution addressed to NAIS, where they also send the dismissal order of the employee.
In case the person is a private employee, he can make the request with a written request or with his personal e-mail to the helpdesk address pki@akshi.gov.al, where he also sends a photo of his identity card.
In both cases, the notification about the successful revocation of the electronic signature is sent by e-mail from the address pki@akshi.gov.al to the party that made the request.
