Applying for a new period of Registration

Registration in the Trainee Specialist Division is for:

• Interns completing their internship training
• Medical practitioners who have completed their internship training and are undertaking postgraduate training in recognised training posts.

When an intern is granted internship registration, they receive a Certificate of Registration for one year. If they require a longer a period of registration, they must apply to the Medical Council to renew their registration. For more information please contact the Medical Council by email at registration@mcirl.ie.

When a medical practitioner practices in recognised postgraduate training posts, they must apply once a year. You can apply online by clicking here. Only currently registered doctors can submit an online TSR1 application. You may also apply using the form TSR1
