Abstract: In this work, we test the cosmic distance duality relation (CDDR) using the arbitrary redshift pivot Pad’e-(2,1) expansion methodology developed in arXiv:2509.16196. This approach allows us to constrain cosmography parameters and test CDDR at any redshift. Further, it does not rely on data reconstructions or extrapolations of the cosmography parameters to higher redshifts. We employ observational data from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) Baryon Acoustic Oscillation dataset, cosmic chronometers (CC), and Type Ia supernovae from the Pantheon Plus (PP) and Dark Energy Survey Year 5 (DESY5) compilations. We find no significant deviations from the standard CDDR relation in the range $0lesssim z lesssim 1$ when considering DESI$+r_d$ dataset in combination with PP$+$CC and DESY5$+$CC datasets. However, on imposing a Gaussian prior on $M_B in mathcal{N}(-19.253, 0.027)$ (instead of treating it as a free parameter) in the dataset combination PP$+$CC, we find CDDR violation at a level of $(3-5)sigma.$arXiv:2510.23037v2 Announce Type: replace
