Police are urging those who need to renew their firearms certificates to get their applications in as soon as possible.

The document, which has to be renewed every three years, must be processed before 1 April.

The Firearms Administration Department at Police Headquarters wants those submitting their papers to make sure all parts of the application are fully completed.

A link to the application form and guidance notes can be found on the Isle of Man Constabulary's Facebook page.
