You cannot renew your certificate if it has already expired, you don't have the password for the Apple ID that's associated with the certificate, or you use a different Apple ID. Instead, you must set up a new certificate. For details, see Set up an Apple push certificate.
The Apple MDM push certificate is valid for 365 days. You must renew it annually to maintain iOS/iPadOS and macOS device management. Once the certificate expires, there is a 30-day grace period to renew it. Renew the MDM push certificate with the same Apple ID you used to create it.
