Registration route finder

It depends on your profession and the country. In the UK, for example, nurses and midwives register with the NMC, doctors with the GMC and most allied health professions with the HCPC. Pick your profession and destination in the route finder to see the regulator for your route.

From our published guides for each profession and country, which are written from the regulators' and exam bodies' own pages and list their sources. The finder shows the first sentence of each step; the full guide has the detail.

The finder says so and shows what our profession guide says about that country: the protected title, the requirements, the exams and the regulator, where the profession is regulated there. It then links the profession guide, which covers every country we write about.

The steps are usually the same, but where you trained can change which documents you need, how they are verified and whether you need an English test. If you are already licensed in the Gulf, the finder shows what our guide says for Gulf-licensed applicants. Guides for other countries of training are added as we publish them.

The United Kingdom, Ireland, Germany, the Netherlands and the United States: the destinations MedicSail works with.

No. Only the regulator can decide whether you are eligible. The finder shows the published route so you know what to expect; our free eligibility check looks at your own documents.

Use the registration cost estimator, which lists every official fee our guide states for the same route, with its source, and adds them up in the destination's currency.

Each guide shows the date it was last checked against its sources. Regulators change their processes, so check the regulator's own page before you apply.
