    If I study medicine in Hungary can I work in Ireland after? Is the degree accepted by the IMC?

    As far as I know, the Irish Medical Council has different criteria for registration depending on where you study:
    • Category 1: Graduates of Irish medical schools
    • Category 2: EU citizens who graduated in an EU medical school and/or their qualifications are recognised under EU Directive 2005/36/EC (recognition of professional qualifications for EU citizens)
    • Category 3: Non-EU citizens who graduated in an EU medical school and/or their qualifications would be recognised under EU Directive 2005/36/EC (recognition of professional qualifications) if they were an EU citizen.
    • Category 4: Medical practitioners who do not meet the criteria for any of the above categories.
    The Pre-Registration Examination System ("PRES") (Levels 2 and 3 of the Application process) must be passed by Category 4 applicants for trainee specialist or general registration, unless they are exempt.

    There's already a thread on this topic:

    You might get a better answer in this thread or contact the Medical Council directly and ask them if a specific Hungarian School is recognised.
