Coterminous Certificates
Where a firearm certificate holder is also a shot gun certificate holder it is possible for the shot gun certificate to be renewed on the same date as the firearm certificate at a reduced renewal fee of £10. After the initial change of renewal date for the shot gun certificate, both certificates would then fall due on the same date, and only £10 would be payable for the renewal of the shot gun certificate. This can only be done where the firearm certificate is due for renewal on a date before the shot gun certificate.
