Return Policy – Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA)

At Entrust Corporation, we strive to provide our customers with excellent customer service. Part of that service involves ensuring that when merchandise needs to be returned to Entrust, the process is understandable and expectations are set appropriately. This document provides a comprehensive description of the merchandise return policy currently in effect for returns due to customer error. For product warranty related returns please refer to that product’s specific warranty statement.

You must contact Entrust to obtain a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) number prior to returning any merchandise. No merchandise will be accepted without exhibiting an RMA number on the outside of the returned merchandise package. It also is recommended to include a copy of the RMA form inside the package.

Note: The terms “merchandise” or “product” refer to Entrust equipment, software, spare parts and supplies.

The Entrust Corporation return policy allows all customers to request an RMA for the return of most unopened and resalable equipment, parts, or supplies within 30 days of shipment from Entrust. Custom products, software, software licenses, hardware security modules (HSMs), and end user specific products are not eligible for return or credit.
