Also present at the event:

Required Documents: Verification at MedEx

An Israeli notary will be present at MedEx to verify documents on-site. If you are planning to verify your documents at MedEx, please make sure to bring your passport for identification. These services will be provided for a fee of 545 AUD, check, or cash. You will receive a receipt. You may be eligible for reimbursement upon Aliyah, provided you make Aliyah within 2 years of payment.

Preparation for Specialty Recognition - Specialists Only

We encourage you to begin the specialty recognition process prior to MedEx, which you can do by uploading your documents to the IMA portal. Please refer to this guide for a step-by-step process of how to fill out the relevant forms. The IMA will not be collecting documents on site! If you’ve started an IMA portal ahead of MedEx and need help, our staff will be available to help you with your application – reach out to us for more details.

FAQ's

The process will take some time, possibly even a few months. If you are looking to start working as soon as possible, you should begin the process now before you make Aliyah. In addition, once in Israel, you will have to travel from office to office and NOT have the opportunity to have it all done under one roof. MedEx is the only place in the world where you have the opportunity to do this all in one place!

The MedEx licensing appointments are available for doctors/medical students planning to make Aliyah through 2028 but all doctors/medical students considering Aliyah at any point are welcome to attend. If you have questions, email 
imap@nbn.org.il 

Only you can make that decision. However, participants often travel in for MedEx events and we believe that it may be well worth it! MedEx licensing conference will save you time, money, and a lot of headaches! If you are thinking about travelling in for MedEx, speak to our team at imap@nbn.org.il

If your spouse/friend/child is unable to attend, you may present documentation on their behalf at the MedEx, though it is, of course, recommended that they attend. Please bring a signed affidavit that you have permission to present their documentation on their behalf.
