Resolution
----------

If ACM certificate requests aren't validated within 72 hours from the time of the request, then the requests fail with the "validation time out error". To resolve this error, first [delete the failed ACM certificate](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/acm/latest/userguide/gs-acm-delete.html). Then, [request a new ACM certificate](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/acm/latest/userguide/gs-acm-request-public.html).

To troubleshoot ACM certificate validation issues, see [Troubleshoot DNS validation problems](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/acm/latest/userguide/troubleshooting-DNS-validation.html) and [Troubleshoot email validation problems](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/acm/latest/userguide/troubleshooting-email-validation.html).
