What is being bought

Published requirement description

The GMC is the regulatory body for doctors in the UK, and among other duties is responsible for controlling access to the UK medical register (the register). Doctors must be entered into the register and hold a licence to practise in order to work as a doctor in the UK.

Doctors seeking registration are divided into two broad categories based upon their country of qualification: UK graduates and international medical graduates.

The GMC requires all primary medical qualifications (PMQ) to be verified with the applicant’s awarding body before the applicant is granted registration. In the case of UK graduates, there is an established process whereby UK medical schools proactively share graduation data directly with the GMC; for international applicants, however, each applicant’s PMQ is verified by the GMC at the point of application.
