International applicant checks

A programme listing is not evidence that an international surgeon can obtain registration, a visa, employment authorization or hands-on privileges.

01

Prior training

Confirm the recognised residency pathway, board eligibility and graduation timing required by the programme.

02

Medical registration

Ask the relevant regulator which licence or limited registration is required for the exact clinical role.

03

Visa and employment

Separate visa sponsorship, work authorization, salary eligibility and malpractice coverage. One does not prove another.

04

Clinical privileges

“Fellowship” can describe hands-on training, supervised practice, observation or research. Confirm the permitted activity in writing.
