Certified Translations for NMC and GMC Registration

The Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) and the General Medical Council (GMC) both require documents in English. If any part of your evidence — diploma, transcript, registration certificate — is in another language, it must be accompanied by a certified translation. Incomplete or non-compliant translations are a common cause of resubmission requests, which can delay registration by weeks.

The requirements mirror UKVI standards: a complete translation of the whole document — including stamps, seals and registration numbers — with a signed certification statement, the date, and the translator's or company's details. Consistency matters too: your name and institution names must be rendered identically across every document in your file.
