Men convicted of historical homosexual offences on the Isle of Man will be pardoned in June.
It comes as the island marks 30 years since homosexual acts were decriminalised.
It means people will be able to apply to have historic convictions removed from their record.
last year the island's Chief Minister issued an "unqualified apology" to gay men convicted of same-sex offences under previous laws.
Homosexual acts were decriminalised on the Isle of Man in 1992, 25 years later than in England and Wales, and 12 years after Scotland.
