Why we need your details

We need you to confirm your identity. This is so we can meet our obligations under the Medical Act and to help stop criminals using your personal details for their own benefit.

We'll only ask for enough information to process your application.

Using your national identity card

If you have a national identity card, you can use this instead of your passport.

Your national identity card must:

  • include a photograph
