No the certification never expirse. Once you pass the exam you are always
considered a php certified engineer BUT of course you are certified only for
php 4 so the certification can effectively become outdated.

If you do wish to become certified with php 4 I suggest you hurry as the
last I heard the plan was for zend to stop the exam for that version in the
new year unless there was enough demand. You of course cannot count on the
demand being there and the exam being continued unless an official
announcement is made.

The best person to ask would be Dhwani Vahia who is the education program
manager at zend. She can be contacted at dhwaniATzendDOTcom (replace the
obvious)
