3 Simple Steps to your Medical Certificate
Complete the referral form
After we receive your referral form, we will request your complete medical history from birth. Your GP practice is given 30 days to return these records.
Our GP reviews your medical records
We will then allocate your case to our GPs who will review your records and complete your proforma.
Report sent to candidate or police force
Once we receive your proforma, we will return it to you or forward it directly to your firearms licensing officer, depending on your force’s requirements.
You can request your own medical records, and the template available in the link below provides a ready‑to‑use letter to help you do this.
