Questions
Before you book
What's the difference between Berufserlaubnis and Approbation?
Berufserlaubnis is a faster, temporary licence to practise. Approbation is the full, permanent German medical licence. Many doctors start with a Berufserlaubnis while working toward full Approbation.
What does the price include?
€990 for Berufserlaubnis or €1,390 for Approbation covers document preparation, certified-translation coordination, application submission and Ärztekammer liaison. Authority fees, translator invoices, the FSP exam fee and any language-course fees are separate.
What is the Facharzt add-on?
An optional €300 add-on that also recognises your specialist title (Facharzt) alongside your base licence.
Do I need to speak German?
Yes — a language certificate (usually B2) plus the Fachsprachprüfung (professional-language exam) is required for doctors. We guide you on exactly what's needed.
How long does it take?
It depends on your Bundesland, the authority's workload and how quickly your documents and translations come together, often several months. We give you a realistic timeline after the document check.
Do I pay now?
No — booking itself is free. We then email you a secure payment link for the full fixed fee, and your coordinator starts work once payment arrives.
Can you guarantee my licence?
No one can guarantee an authority's decision. We make sure your application is complete and correct before it is filed, and we tell you openly if we see a risk.
