I am an overseas-trained pharmacy graduate / pharmacist. What are the criteria for me to be registered as a pharmacist in Singapore?
Overseas-trained pharmacy graduates / pharmacists who wish to seek registration as a pharmacist in Singapore must obtain a basic pharmacy qualification that is listed in the List of Registrable Overseas Qualifications. The entire pharmacy course must be conducted in the country where the main university confers the degree. In addition, the applicant must fulfil the SPC’s prevailing requirements, which include an offer of employment with an SPC-approved training institution. The applicant must also be registered as a pharmacist in the country of study and is currently holding a valid license to practise in that country.
Please note that satisfaction of the general criteria for pharmacy registration does not guarantee approval. Every application for pharmacy registration will be considered by SPC based on its own merits and subjected to SPC’s prevailing requirements that may change from time to time.
