ShootCert provides expert medical verification for firearms and shotgun licensing in line with Home Office statutory guidance for police firearms licensing. The guidance, effective from 1 November 2021, outlines the responsibilities of chief officers when assessing applications, renewals, and revocations. A key requirement is obtaining a factual medical report from a GMC-registered doctor to confirm any relevant health conditions. This process ensures public safety while supporting responsible firearms ownership. As the only provider recommended by BASC, the Countryside Alliance, and CPSA, ShootCert simplifies the medical verification process, offering a fast, reliable service that meets police requirements.
