P2PEFor Solutionsdetails andregarding applicablePTS-approved P2PEPOI Components undergoing an initial assessment (i.e., they are not performing a reassessment on an existing PCI P2PE approval listing) must use non-expired HSMs (i.e., not exceeding the PTS HSM approvaldevice expiry date as denoted on the applicable PTS listing(s) or FIPS HSMs whose certificates are not on the NIST historical or revoked list).

PCI-listed P2PE Solutions and Components, as detailed in the P2PE Program Guide, require a full reassessment every 3 years as indicated by the associated ?reassessment date? denoted on their PCI P2PE listing. These listed Solutions and Components are allowed to reassess their existing PCI P2PE approval up to but not exceeding 3 years past the expiry of any HSMs already included in their approval. This will be checked as part of the reassessment and submittal process to PCI SSC. As the reassessment (provided it results in an updated P2PE listing) is valid for 3 years, this will allow vendors to continue to use the expired HSMs for up to a total of 6 years after any associated PTS HSM listings have expired depending on their reassessment date.
