After completing my course, will I be able to apply for registration to practice as a doctor or assistant in the UK or Germany for a Postgraduate?
Yes, after completing your medical degree, you can apply to register and practice as a doctor in both the UK and Germany, but each country has specific requirements.
UK:
You'll need to register with the General Medical Council (GMC). Common routes include passing the PLAB test (which assesses medical knowledge and English), holding an approved postgraduate qualification, or being sponsored by a GMC-approved body. From 2024, the Medical Licensing Assessment (MLA) is also required.
Germany:
You must obtain the "Approbation" (medical license). This involves getting your degree recognized by the state health authority, demonstrating German language proficiency (usually C1 level), and possibly passing a medical knowledge exam. Requirements may vary by state.
Requirements and processes are subject to change.
