Registration Renewal

The registration renewal date for medical practitioners with general, specialist and non-practising registration is 30 September. The registration renewal date for practitioners with limited or provisional registration is determined on a case by case basis.

Reminders are sent to medical practitioners when registration is due. Look out for these reminders six to eight weeks before your registration expiry date as confirmation that online renewal of registration is open.

The Board can grant up to 12 months registration.
