No, your Indian MBBS degree is not directly recognized for medical practice in Australia.

To practice medicine in Australia, you must:
- Verify your degree through the ECFMG EPIC system.
- Pass the Australian Medical Council (AMC) exams: both the computer-based MCQ and the clinical exam.
- Apply for registration with the Medical Board of Australia under the appropriate pathway.
- Complete 12 months of supervised practice in Australia before you can apply for general registration.

Requirements and processes are subject to change.
