Doctor; application for a clearance certificate to take up work abroad
Description
The certificate of good standing is proof of authorization to practice the medical profession in Germany without restriction. The certificate of good standing also confirms that no professional legal proceedings have been initiated and no professional legal measures have been taken.
If you practise or have practised your profession in Upper Bavaria, Lower Bavaria, Swabia or the Upper Palatinate and wish to practise the medical profession abroad in the future, the government of Upper Bavaria is the competent authority for issuing the certificate of good standing. If you work in the other Bavarian administrative districts, the government of Lower Franconia is responsible.
