# §33.208. How long does an MBE or WBE certification from EPA last?


Once EPA OSDBU certifies an entity to be an MBE or WBE by placing it on the EPA OSDBU list of certified MBEs and WBEs specified in [§ 33.206](/cfr/40/33.206.md), the entity will generally remain on the list for a period of three years from the date of its certification. To remain on the list after three years, an entity must submit a new application and receive a new certification.
