Do you want to work in Italy as doctor?
The requirement to apply to the Italian Medical Council for the medical profession in Italy is to be fulfilled in doctors who are not citizens or whose medical degree has been issued from medical school abroad.
Citizenship and citizenship laws and credentials gained outside Italy are taken into account by the law.
It should be noted that the medical profession’s practice is permitted only for occasional services rendered by doctors holding EU citizenship. Also subject to the previous contact by the Italian Ministry of Health without registration with the Italian Medical Council can practice the medical profession.
Program Management Period
A request for registration on the National Practitioner’s Registry, sent to the Italian Medical Council, must be carefully checked.
The time required is based upon the application’s complexity. The length of time needed is dependent on the application’s complexity.
In the legal term of three months from the date of presentation, the Medical Council of Italy must accept or reject a submission.
It should be noted that the medical profession’s practice is permitted only for occasional services rendered by doctors holding EU citizenship.
Requirements for Doctors without EU Citizenship Graduated in a Non-EU Country
A valid Stay Permission for the applicant
Doctors outside the EU have a valid residence permit in Italy, which is subject to the rules laid down by immigration laws. The forms of residency permits that are deemed adequate for registration in professional registers are as follows:
- On employment reason or awaiting work (either self-employed or dependent);
- For purposes of the family;
- For purposes of research and education only, except that a doctor is permitted to work for not more than 20 hours a week and not more than 1040 hours a year, restricted to the periods of study and training.
The residence license is always valid and must be renewed at the police headquarters periodically. If the renewal is not made, then the Register shall be terminated.
The occupation in Italy, therefore, can not be continued. The permanent resident visa, which substitutes for the permit for temporary residency, is also available.
The Italian Ministry of Health and the Ministry of Education, Universities, and Science shall accept qualifications.
The Italian Health Ministry for which an application must be made (see above) should also be remembered. The Ministry of Education, Universities, and Research should also approve the degree obtained outside the EU.
The two bureaus review and arrive at one of the following conclusions: The doctor’s course of study.
- The doctor will apply for registrations in the Italian Medical Council within two years of the immediate Order of graduate recognition;
- The applicant may have to undergo evaluation or incorporate a further Italian University thesis with his / her course of study. The doctor can receive a degree that is valid in Italy after completing the requisite further studies. He will then pass the necessary test before registering in the province of residence with the Italian Medical Council.
- The request is refused; therefore, the applicant cannot register with the Italian Medical Council and can not practice medicine in Italy.
An adequate evaluation of Italian language skills is required of the applicant.
As we are talking in this case of non-Italian doctors who have a degree in a foreign language, it is essential to test the knowledge of Italian language and regulations regulating the practice of the profession in Italy before receiving an inscription with the Order (and thus being able to practice in Italy).
A test is done by the group of practitioners for which the practitioner applies.
The Order continues with its entry in the registry if the verification is concluded positively.
Otherwise, it defines a time-limit for the practitioner to take the new test, giving the applicant time to obtain good language command and good knowledge of Italian regulations.
Unless the Italian Medical Council registers first, doctors without an EU citizenship will not be permitted to practice medicine under any circumstance in Italy. As stated earlier, registration requires the competent authority in Italy to accept credentials, a valid residency Permit, and an examination of Italian language skills.
