If you have served overseas with HM Armed Forces in the last five years you will need to provide us with an extract from your service records. The extract must expressly disclose any convictions you may have, and should cover all periods spent overseas, irrespective of length.

The extract will be forwarded to you and should be enclosed with your licence application. If you send in an application without the extract, we will reject it as incomplete and the whole application (including the application fee) will be returned to you.
