answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/07/2019 answer text <p>Currently, UK professionals benefit from automatic recognition of their professional qualifications by EU member states for seven professions: nurses, midwives, doctors, dentists, pharmacists, architects and veterinary surgeons. All other qualifications are only recognised if they are deemed to be of an equivalent standard to the EU Member State’s own standards. If the UK leaves the EU without a deal, UK nationals will no longer have access to the EU’s reciprocal system of automatic professional qualification recognition.</p><p>UK nationals seeking recognition to practice regulated professions in the EU after a no deal exit would have to check the national policies and rules of the relevant Member State in which they intend to practice. The Government has published advice for UK professionals seeking to have their qualifications recognised in EU member states in the event of ‘no deal’ on Gov.uk.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Worcester answering member printed Mr Robin Walker question first answered 16/07/2019 12:01:09 answering member 4091 label Biography information for Mr Robin Walker

This will cover qualifications recognised under the MRPQ Directive, lawyers practising under host title and approved statutory auditors.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p>The March European Council agreed guidelines for negotiations on our future relationship, referencing the desire of the EU27 to include ambitious provisions on the recognition of qualifications.
