THE EDUCATIONAL COMMISSION

FOR FOREIGN MEDICAL GRADUATES (ECFMG)



INTERNATIONAL CREDENTIALS SERVICE (EICS)

The Medical and Dental Professional Board of the Health Professions Council of South Africa requires that physicians seeking medical licensure/registration who completed their medical education outside South Africa submit copies of certain documents to the Educational Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates (ECFMG) International Credentials Service (EICS). EICS will obtain primary source verification of the authenticity of these documents from the entity that issued these documents to you. The Medical and Dental Professional Board requires that you submit copies of the following documents to EICS for verification:




  • Medical school diploma;

  • Medical school transcript;

  • Medical licensure/registration certificates in other jurisdictions;

  • Postgraduate training certificates

Please complete the enclosed EICS Application for Verification of Credentials and send it to EICS with the required documents, four additional photographs and payment of $ US150.00. Instructions for completing the application are included.


After EICS receives your completed application, credentials and fee, EICS will secure primary source verification of the medical credentials. EICS will write to the institutions that issued the credentials: the medical school, licensing jurisdiction and program providing graduate medical education. EICS will send the institutions a copy of the document to be verified, a confirmation form to be completed and a photograph signed by you to assist in identification. EICS will ask the institution official to complete the confirmation form to verify the credentials and return the confirmation form directly to EICS.
If EICS does not receive verification of a document within sixty (60) days of our request, EICS will notify you and the Medical and Dental Professional Board regarding the documents that have not yet been verified. EICS will make a second request for verification of these documents. If EICS does not receive the confirmation form for a document within four (4) months of the initial request, EICS will notify you and the Medical and Dental Professional Board regarding any documents we have been unable to verify.
After verification of all the required credentials has been secured, an EICS report will be sent to the Medical and Dental Professional Board. The report will contain your name and biographic information and a list of the medical credentials that were verified. The EICS report will also include copies of the credentials that were verified.
The EICS application packet consists of the following items:


  • Instructions for Completing the ECFMG International Credentials Service (EICS) Application

  • ECFMG International Credentials Service (EICS) Application

  • Affidavit and Release

  • Authorization for Release of Information, Documents and Records
