The Pakistan Medical and Dental Council (PMDC) is the regulatory body that governs medical and dental education and practice in Pakistan.
It is responsible for issuing and renewing licenses to medical and dental practitioners, ensuring the quality of education, and regulating the practice of medicine and dentistry.
Renewal of a PMDC license is essential for medical and dental practitioners to continue their practice in Pakistan. The PMDC has made the process of renewal easier and more convenient by introducing an online system.
In this article, we will discuss the steps involved in renewing your PMDC license online.
Step 1: Visit the PMDC website
To begin the process of renewing your PMDC license online, you need to visit the official website of PMDC at online-dev777.pmdc.pk.
The website is easy to navigate, and all the necessary information is available on the homepage.
Step 2: Sign up
If you are a new user, you need to sign up by clicking on the "Sign Up" button on the homepage.
You will be directed to a new page where you need to fill in your personal details such as your name, email address, and contact number.
You will also be required to create a username and password for your account.
Step 3: Log in
Once you have signed up, you need to log in to your account by entering your username and password.
If you are an existing user, you can skip the sign-up process and directly login to your account.
Step 4: Upload your photo and old PMDC license certificate
After logging in, you need to upload a recent passport-sized photograph and a scanned copy of your old PMDC license.
The photograph should be in JPEG format and not exceed 2 MB in size. The old PMDC license should be in PDF format and not exceed 5 MB in size.
Step 5: Submit fees
Once you have uploaded your photograph and old PMDC license, you need to submit the renewal fee.
You can either pay the fee via credit card or via challan. If you choose to pay via credit card, you need to enter your credit card details, including the card number, expiry date, and CVV code.
If you choose to pay via challan, you need to download the challan form, fill it in, and submit it at any branch of the Muslim Commercial Bank of Pakistan (MCB).
Step 6: Confirmation
After submitting the renewal fee, your application will be reviewed by PMDC officials, and you will receive a confirmation email once your renewal is approved.
The email will contain a link to your renewed license, which you can download and print.
