This man is Very direct ! Direkt zum Ziel !! Danke

[@Frostgaming23444]

Hey man. I loved this video. This is the first video of yours that I'm seeing ngl but thank god I found it cz it answered alot of my questions. I was so confused as to how to even apply for the fsp even after knowing what fsp and approbationprufung is. So that was answered very nicely in this video and I'm always indebted to you. Keep up the good work man 🎉

This was very useful indeed! Thank you so much for your time and effort! :D

[@vicentedevilla4084]

Thank you very much for the information. The fundamental problem that I see is the language. I understand German but I neither speak nor write it fluently so I don't know if I have the level required by the authorities.

Thank you!

[@dr.deathium4487]

I'm a 2nd-year med student in a non-EU country. I heard that it usually takes 1.5-2years to become a resident in Germany, but what exactly does this period of time represent? Is it the time it takes to study the required exams or is it the time it takes to submit your papers and get them accepted? Assuming I just started learning German and studying for the FSP and Kenntnisprüfung, how long would it take me to become a resident in Germany if I immediately took the FSP and kenntnisprufung after graduation? + THANK YOU so much for your videos

[@BethlehemGerbachew]

Hey, can I talk with you please I have some questions I want to ask you

[@jayendraarjun5838]

[@gabrielekoslowski2628]

Hey, I wanted to ask if someone could recommend me a Bundesland to do the Kenntnisprüfunf in Germany. I heard there a huge differences between the Bundesländer in the time that it takes between submitting all the paperwork and getting to write the test. Maybe someone can give me some advice?

[@annu5574]

thanks for the video.but I have heard even if the documents are in english we have to translate it to German.

Hello there i have a questions this FSP testing way its more un-difficult for dentist as the doctors ore its kind a same thing in germany ?

[@jessamariejimenez387]

What if im already a specialist in my homecountry, can i practice in Germany? Is this the same prcoess?

[@necheuwaoma3279]

Thanks a lot Doc for this very informative video! 🤯👍👏❤. I'm a Nigerian in my 5th year med school in Ukraine, and Ukraine is not yet in the EU plus as foreigners, we don't get licenced to practice here in Ukraine, so basically after studying here you go home!😆. I just started learning German language 😎😊💃 but I'm curious about a few things and I'd like to know : 1. Is the "certificate of good standing" just for licenced practicing doctors? Or are fresh graduates (who are not licensed) also entitled to it? 2. If as a fresh graduate, I should also get this document, who will issue it to me? Is it my school? 3. To apply for the exam, will I have to start some of the documentation here in Ukraine then apply for the exam from here before going to Germany? Or do I have to be in Germany first to do everything? 4. If I'd have to be in Germany first before doing anything, what documents would I present to the embassy to show my reason for wanting to travel there? 5. If I will start the process from here in Ukraine, what kind of visa would I apply for (and get)? Is the visa guaranteed? 6. If I will start from here, what will be the initial processes? Thanks as I await your reply 🙏

[@sanjaborovic6328]

Vielen Dank! 🥰

[@Hlo55555]

Can I bring my spouse during my temporary license in Germany? Georgia allows us to practice after mbbs without any licence. So is it valid?

[@Finnfuhrer03]

Thank you for the video. I have one questions please. The very first step to start the process to validate your title is to have a B2 level of german? Or can i do the documents it in advance?

[@shw157]

Danke schön You re so Great

[@dastyysyk613]

Thanks for videos! By the way where are you from?

[@nomang9691]

I am medical students in Serbia which is in Europe but not in *European union* so after graduation I want to work in Germany do I need any other exam like FSP or not, only first exame which is related to language. please reply

[@Oussama-ci7po]

thanks for the informations i have a question what if you have the diplome of Doctor but not from the EU?.Is it the same way ?

[@EutopianDoctor]

I know some universities outside the EU have agreements for a direct acceptance of the diploma, but most don't. That means most likely you won't get a direct acceptance of the diploma. The process for you might take a bit longer.

[@Oussama-ci7po]

@@EutopianDoctor so i need to pass the FSP ?

[@EutopianDoctor]

Yeah you still need to pass it

[@jinalpatel6573]

Do i need to focus on medical language or german language first??

[@Kaushika21]

After getting a job . Do we need to tell the medical coucil

[@EutopianDoctor]

Once you have been recognised you don’t have to deal with the medical council anymore

[@meto2854]

Thanks for the wonderful information! Could you please tell us whether the Regierung requires the documents to be translated by a German court-appointed translator or they can be translated in our home countries? Some agencies ask 500 euros or more for document translations by an official German translator.

[@EutopianDoctor]

It has to be an official " court appointed" translator. But there might be one in your country. That the translator is accepted as a "jury translator" in Germany does not mean he/she lives in Germany

[@asiyanbitunde8713]

Good afternoon. Thanks for the video. I am from Nigeria. I have B2 already. I was given a checklist from Berlin as I want to apply for approbation there but part of the requirement was "Nachweise über die Zuständigkeit  Einstellungszusage über einen Arbeitsplatz im Land Berlin oder  aktueller Melderegisterauszug über den Hauptwohnsitz oder Nachweis des gewöhnlichen Aufenthalts im Land Berlin oder  Bewerbungen auf offene Stellen im Land Berlin, Einladungen zu Vorstellungsgesprächen etc." I am Nigerian. How do I go about it?

[@williamssyder4385]

I'm a Nigerian medical student too, and I just started learning German. I have plans of going for the FSP after graduation. You made this comment two years ago. How has it been going with you? I hope you succeeded

[@hamdesire239]

hey there thanx for the video, appretiate it i got 2 questions tho: you said "i've been learning german for 2 years" and later you said "you will need 6 months of preparation" so how long will it take for me, starting from zero? and also, would they consider the number of years/months after graduation in giving you a spot for a specialty or hospital?

[@EutopianDoctor]

Starting from zero between 1 and 2 years to perfect the language and prepare for the exam. This is of course an average, you can do it in less if you really try! I guess they would consider it if it was a lot. Isatarted working 2 years after graduation and no questions were asked.

[@Х.БилгүүнАНА-605]

hello how can i contact to you personally need your help pls

[@sivatmikashylakumar2638]

Hey, Thanks for the video! Can you explain what this is about? bei Ausbildung im Ausland: Nachweis über die Berechtigung zur Ausübung des Heilberufs im Ausbildungs- und/oder Herkunftsstaat (in beglaubigter Kopie)

[@EutopianDoctor]

A document that says you are allowed to work as a doctor in the country where you learned medicine and/or worked as a doctor. ( It is a proof that you didn't commit any "medical crime" and you are still allowed to work as a doctor) It is also known as the "certificate of good standing". It is issued by the ministry of health of that country. Your university's Dean office should know about it and maybe can redirect you to the right office of the ministry of health. Best of luck

[@andreaa1256]

HI! REALLY ENJOYED YOUR VIDEOS! IF YOU NEED TO TAKE THE EXAM AGAIN, HOW LONG DO YOU HAVE TO WAIT TO DO IT? AND WHAT KIND OF VISA DO YOU NEED? THANKS :)

[@naisarggandhi9812]

Did you give or preparing for kp exam?

[@judyf37]

Doc, does performance in med school or the grades in transcript of records matter also in applying as a doctor there in germany? Do they check it too? Vielen dank for reply

[@EutopianDoctor]

It depends on with how many people you apply for the same position. If it is 100 doctors applying for 1 position, then research, experience and grades make a difference

[@judyf37]

@@EutopianDoctor thankyou.. doc do you have any idea how hard to get into radiology residency there in germany? Is it competitive there?

[@kisa_yuki]

I've watched all your videos and would like to thank you for the detailed information, however, there are still some burning questions that I have. I am currently not living in Germany and would like to apply for the Approbation and also, to search for jobs. How would I go about going to Germany? Would applying for Approbation give me the necessary visa to stay for the FSP? Would I have to apply for a Visum zur Anerkennung ausländischer Berufsqualifikation or Visum zur Arbeitsplatzsuche: „Jobseeker“ ? Would it be better to apply for a Berufserlaubnis first and then apply for Approbation? When I apply for Approbation, how soon must I take the FSP and Kenntnisprüfung (KP)? Though I understand that to apply for a Berufserlaubnis, I would have to score a job first. This is where I am quite worried and unsure on what course of action to take. Honestly, I would like to prepare for the FSP and KP in Germany as I have heard there are preparatory classes available. Also, since I am from Indonesia, a country outside of EU and EEA, I will try to do Anerkennung and perhaps KP. Do you know anything about this process and exam or anyone who does? It would be great if you can make a video of this. Thank you again for your generosity in sharing all these information. All the best!

[@EutopianDoctor]

You catch me off guard when it comes to different visas for not Europeans... I suppose it depends on WHEN you want to come: After getting the annerkenung and passing the FSP you will recieve a provisory " Beruferlaubnis" that allows you to start working as a Doctor for moreless 2 years until you do the KP and get the final allowance to work in Germany. If you dont want to wait until then and want to come before the FSP in order to do courses and prepare for it then as you said then I suppose a " Jobseeker" or working Visa would be a good idea.

[@varshaverves9603]

How much is the examination fees ?

[@RS-td1er]

Hi , thanx for uploading these enlightening videos. I'm currently in med school . is studying a relative major like biotechnology engineering or norosience possible while doing residency in germany? Is studying possible while being on working visa in germany? And if it is according to law possible , can one make it (with working hours in mind) ?

all you ned to apply in Germany is your diploma, and paper that you are allowed to work as a doctor where you graduated (China). Being a registered doctor in china or working there is not needed.

[@rosdale241checkingin7]

are germans racist towards foreign doctors??

[@EutopianDoctor]

Difficult to tell. Germans rarely say their honest opinion openly. So if there is racism it is hidden. Foreign doctors get the chance to work like anyone else and prove themselves under the same conditions. That is at least the experience I have had so far.
