How do I register to work overseas as a nurse, midwife or paramedic?

If you are a qualified nurse, midwife or paramedic and wish to work internationally, overseas hospitals and registration boards require you to submit documentation for prospective employers.

Please note: Paramedic students who wish to register with HCPC are not required to pay the fee. They can contact their course coordinator to assist them with completing their own HCPC registration application.

You can lodge your request for overseas registration by completing the Overseas Nursing, Midwifery and Paramedicine Registration form. Payment of $150.00 is required and can be paid online by credit card.

The cost includes:

• The cost of an academic transcript
• ACU School processing fees
• If required, processed application sent via Express Post International to the relevant Overseas Registration Board (NOTE: If your application is being processed by the Brisbane team, it will be sent by Registered Post International).

Once you have completed the online form, you must email a copy of your receipt together with your original documentation from the Overseas Registration Board to the relevant school in your state. On receipt of your documentation, the School will process your application.

You should allow up to 60 business working days for processing.
