During the discount period, opportunities also exist for current IRC certificate holders to apply for discounted Trial applications if their quota of six (6) hasn’t been used for the rating year.

Please note, however, that due to IRC rule changes, Trial ratings issued under the 2016 IRC Rule aren’t guaranteed to remain consistent for the 2017 IRC rating season starting on the 1st of June 2017. If you would like to know how many Trials you have remaining for 2016/17, please email us at [email protected] 

The discount will only apply for ratings issued with an expiry date of 31 May 2017. Prices will return to full price once the 2017 rating year begins on 1 June 2017.
