For working as a doctor in the Federal Republic of Germany, doctors from non-EU countries need a licence (Approbation) or provisional licence (Berufserlaubnis) to practise medicine and a residence permit that permits employment. It is granted for an unlimited period and entitles the holder to practice medicine without any professional restrictions.

The applicant must fulfil the following prerequisites for being granted the licence to practice medicine: a completed training as a medical doctor that is equivalent to the training of medical doctors in Germany, the fulfilment of the personal and health requirements for practising the profession, and the German language skills necessary for practicing the profession. In any case, the granting of a residence permit for an employment as a doctor requires the certified German translations of all documents in foreign languages.
