It’s best to start the application process for your Israeli medical license about 1-2 years before you plan to make Aliyah.

Regarding the medical licensing process in Israel, please read the information below carefully. Feel free to reach out to us at MedPro@nbn.org.il with any questions.

General overview

Receiving your full credentials in Israel is a two pronged process.

  1. Apply for medical licensing through the Ministry of Health.
  2. Apply for board certification through the Israeli Medical Association.

We’ve put together a step-by-step guide for applying for board certification through the Israeli Medical Association. Read Here
