National Medical Commission spells out limits for electives, observership by foreign medical doctors in India - Video

Standardising the Electives and Observership programmes offered to Foreign Nationals at medical colleges across the country, the National Medical Commission (NMC) has issued guidelines for the grant of a Non-Objection Certificate (NOC) to such medicos. These guidelines set the duration, allocation of seats, processing fee and overall mandate for the Electives and Observership programmes for Foreign Nationals.

As per the provisions under the Indian Medical Council Act, 1956 and the Post Graduate Medical Education Regulations, 2000, it is not mandatory for foreign candidates to have temporary registration with erstwhile MCI (now NMC) at the time of writing NEET PG. Foreign Nationals can write NEET-PG without registration. However, they are required to obtain temporary registration from the apex medical regulator for the duration of the PG course restricted to the Medical College/institution to which they are admitted.
