International medical graduates (IMG) refer to doctors trained overseas. IMGs holding a degree from a university specified in the
Second Schedule of the MRA or a
registrable postgraduate medical qualification recognised by SMC may apply for
medical registration provided the applicant meets SMC's prevailing criteria for registration.
International Medical Graduates who do not hold qualifications which are recognised by the SMC as stated above will not be eligible to apply for medical registration to be a medical practitioner in Singapore.
