| URGENT MESSAGE: Authentication EBEORL-HNS diplomas. DEADLINE 8th JANUARY 2018 |
Dear Doctors,
In order for a document to be authenticated by the Belgian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, it has to be signed by the legal representative of a Belgian legal entity, whose signature can be authenticated by a Belgian Civil Officer. We have been looking into ways of securing concrete outcome for such administrative process which, as you already know, is rather complex. In this regard, we liaised with the notary of the UEMS who has accepted to validate the signature of the legal representative of the UEMS, thus creating the first step towards legalization of your diploma.
We would like to inform you that we have established a procedure to facilitate the recognition process of the Diploma you passed which is the following:
1. The applicant sends to the UEMS Office (Ms CARRATALA, Rue de l’Industrie, 24 – BE1040 Brussels, Belgium) the following document:
· The original UEMS Diploma (Please note that only diplomas with issued by UEMS can be authenticated)
· Copy of the UEMS Diploma
· Copy of valid ID or passport
2. The applicant sends a scanned copy of his original diploma and ID by email to lise@uems.net with details of postal address to which we will return the signed document
· Please put as title of email: “Authentication of UEMS Diplomas – SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS”
· Provide details on the date you passed the exam and the specialty
3. THE UEMS Office will then contact the organizers of the Examination to confirm that the applicant has indeed passed the Examination
4. The UEMS Office will organize a meeting with the Notary to have the confirmed Diplomas signed
5. The UEMS Office will then send back the Original Diploma to the applicant or to someone duly mandated.
It is the applicant’s responsibility to send the Diploma to the Belgian Ministry of Foreign Affairs in order to have it legalized and follow the requested procedure.
The meeting with the Notary will be held on January 2017 and we would like to invite you to send the relevant documents by 8th January 2017 should you wish to have your diploma stamped by UEMS. Please note that UEMS office is closed between Dec 23rd, 2017 and January 1st, 2018.
The administrative fee for this procedure is 95 € (ninety-five euros). The sending costs of returning Diplomas by registered post is also at the candidate’s charge (40€ to 50 € depending on the countries). Once the Diploma is signed, we will issue an invoice and ask you to pay by bank transfer. Once the payment is received, we will return the document back to you.
If you know some doctors in the same situation, please inform them.
Do not hesitate to contact me should you require further information.
Best regards,
Lise
