Application for the title of Doctor

Last update

Summary:

Healthcare professionals in Luxembourg can register their academic qualification (Level 8).

Any healthcare professional who holds a valid authorisation to practise issued by the Ministry of Health and Social Security (hereinafter 'the Ministry') may declare their Level 8 academic qualification in order to be entitled to use the title of Doctor.

Who is concerned

Any healthcare professional who has:

  • a valid authorisation to practise issued by the Ministry; and
  • a Level 8 academic qualification that entitles the holder to use the title of Doctor.

Prerequisites

Licence to practice

In order to register your academic qualification and use the title of Doctor, you must:

  • hold a licence to practise issued by the Ministry; and
  • be professionally active.

If an inactive licence to practise is detected during the procedure, you will be informed of the option to renew that licence via another MyGuichet.lu procedure.

Setting up a business eSpace

To submit your application via MyGuichet.lu, you must have a business eSpace.

How to create a business eSpace on MyGuichet.lu

There are 2 possible scenarios:

  1. You are a new user of MyGuichet.lu. You must:
    • first register on MyGuichet.lu; and
    • then create a business eSpace.
  2. You already have a private eSpace on MyGuichet.lu. You can directly create a business eSpace without having to register again.

Further information as well as tutorials in relation with the business eSpace are available in our dedicated help page.

How to proceed

Filing an application

Applications must be filed online via the MyGuichet.lu platform.

This procedure requires a LuxTrust product or an electronic identity card (eID).

Once you have submitted your application, you will receive any related messages/notifications by email.

Supporting documents

You must enclose with your application a copy of the entry for your qualification in the register of certificates held by the Ministry of Research and Higher Education.

Additional supporting documents may be required to verify any new professional information.
