Is Hostinger ready for 100-day and 47-day certificates?

Renews automatically

Hostinger’s own certificates renew automatically, so the shorter lifetimes (100 days from March 15, 2027, 47 days from March 15, 2029) are handled for you, with the exceptions below.

What renews automatically

• Lifetime SSL installs automatically when a domain is added and renews for as long as the site is hosted at Hostinger and the domain points there.[Hostinger 1 (Hostinger Docs — SSL Certificates), 2 (Hostinger Support — How to install Lifetime SSL at Hostinger)]

What doesn’t

• Not included on VPS. You set up your own (for example Certbot or Traefik). Lifetime SSL certificates can't be exported to another server.[Hostinger]

When it renews

Unknown: Hostinger doesn’t say how far ahead it renews.

What to do, and by when

1. February 10, 2027 · In 87 days
   Let's Encrypt default certificates drop to 64 days[Let's Encrypt 1 (Let's Encrypt — Decreasing Certificate Lifetimes to 45 Days (Dec 2, 2025)), 2 (Let's Encrypt — 64-Day Certificate Lifetimes Coming Feb 2027 (Oct 7, 2026))]
   Nothing to do on shared/cloud hosting. On a VPS, check your own ACME client (see Certbot or Traefik).

Steps

1. In hPanel, open Security > SSL and check each domain shows Active.
2. On a VPS, follow our Certbot or Traefik guide.
