According to the Ministry, non-EU professionals with medical degrees may take the theoretical and practical test up until September 29, according to EU Helpers.

The appeal for the recognition of medical degrees earned by professionals outside the European Union has been extended by the Ministry of Health. With this action, the Ministry prioritizes physician training to address the demand for medical specialties coverage, according to a statement from the Ministry.

The Ministry of Health provided an explanation for the choice, stating that by extending the term of recognition, they hope to enable more non-EU professionals to operate in the nation's healthcare sector after receiving authorization.

"After the first filter, non-EU graduates must pass the theoretical-practical test to be able to practice medicine in Spain," the Ministry emphasized.

As the Ministry points out, in order to improve Spain's labor force, foreign degrees must be recognized. Since there are already shortages in the industry, the nation has already begun to implement new regulations.

The country is offering training in the field, offering the biggest number of spots in history for the 2023–2024 call, and medical professionals can continue practicing until the age of 70.

Spain is not the only EU nation attempting to recruit migrant workers due to a lack of domestic healthcare staff.


Portugal just recently disclosed that it is now paying Brazilian doctors a gross wage of €2,863.

The Portuguese government has stated that it is giving this pay to Brazilian doctors in an effort to entice them to Portugal due to the persistent lack of medical professionals in the nation.

All physicians who are hired will be given a contract with a three-year term. Additionally, it has been made known that medical professionals from Brazil would primarily work in the Lisbon and Vale, Alentejo, and Algarve regions.

Brazilian physicians will be required to perform 40 hours a week in accordance with the contract that is issued to them.

Similarly, Germany has previously signed a statement with Brazil and is currently grappling with shortages in the healthcare industry.

The two nations have agreed to apply simplified rules for skilled employees who want to work in one other's territory by signing this declaration.

Germany claimed that recruiting more nurses is their major priority. However, the need for doctors remains.
