Is the EWUNI Medical Degree Valid in India?
A common question that many students ask, or should ask, is whether a medical degree from a foreign university is valid in India. To answer this, it’s crucial to understand the FMGL (Foreign Medical Graduate Licentiate) Regulations. You can read it here – Foreign Medical Graduate Licentiate Regulations 2021.
Whether any country including Georgia fulfils all the rules and regulations in FMGL Regulations is still not certain. This is because NMC itself has not said anything on this issue. Therefore, we have to do our research. In the case of Georgia, the Ministry of Education of Georgia came out with the following notification which says that Georgia’s medicine program fulfils all the regulations of NMC.
