I am a foreigner currently studying in a pharmacy school that will not be in the list from 1 Aug 2020. I am expected to graduate in 2020, will I be able to register with the SPC to practise in Singapore?
The SPC will only consider granting registration to foreign pharmacy graduates whose basic pharmacy qualifications are listed in the List of Registrable Overseas Qualifications (effective from 1 Aug 2020).
Foreign students who have already secured a place as a candidate, or who have enrolled and are studying in the affected schools before 1 Aug 2020, from an overseas school offering a qualification that is no longer on the list, will not be affected by the change. They will continue to be considered for conditional registration with the SPC if they fulfil the other prevailing requirements, such as being registered as a pharmacist in the country of study and currently holding a valid license to practise in that country.
