Registration guidance for international physician associates
This guide is for physician associates (PAs) who have a qualification from a country outside of the UK that allows them to practice the profession.
The steps you will need to take to apply for registration are:
- Qualification assessment process
- Obtain evidence of English language (where necessary)
- Pass the Physician Associate National Exam (PANE)/PA Registration Assessment (PARA)
- Independent verification of qualification through ECFMG, a division of Intealth
- Registration application process including identity check.
There are fees to pay at each step of this process. Due to the time and costs involved, we strongly recommend you assess the prospects of finding employment as a PA in the UK before applying for registration.
