Primary answer
The eligibility certificate issued by the National Medical Commission (NMC) was earlier required for Indian students who wanted to pursue MBBS abroad after 2002. This certificate confirmed that the student met the eligibility criteria for studying medicine overseas. However, the current requirement may vary based on the latest NMC regulations. Candidates who began their foreign medical education during the period when the certificate was mandatory must present it during the FMGE application or registration process.
