verification of saudi license for canada nursing registration

Published

i used to work in saudi arabia as a Rn for 4 years and I recently exit from the kingdom to apply in canada however upon reading the registration requirements. The Canada nursing board requires a verification of my license from philippines and in saudi arabia. The question is, How am I going to send this form to the saudi health commission? I visited their website but its not indicated there the exact address and the person that needs to be contacted regarding this concern. Is it possible for me to take this form to the saudi embassy or to the ateneo professional schools to verify my license? Thank you very much and I am hoping for a reply..=)

hey Guys! I just found the answer yesterday. I am in the same road u know...well what I did was I ask first the Board of nursing if they have an idea how to get that document then they advised me to go in this site Saudi Commission for Health Specialties, request for Certificate of Good Standing through online. Go to E-services and look for Good Standing Certificate and enter your License Number. U have to pay SR300 fee, fill out and print the form and photocopy your License card. Good thing that I have friends there I just let them pay for my fee and they will send me the receipt and Once I paid it I have to send the receipt , the form and copy of my license to Saudi Commission for Health Specialties Saudi Arabia through mail.

Canada isn't recruiting off shore.

Canada doesn't have a "Nursing Board"

Suggest you do a lot more research around this site. All your answers are there.

Hi nadj_88' thank you for your information....i want to ask if did you receive your certificate of good standing through e-mail? The regulatory bodies here in canada require the saudi council to send the forms directly to them...so how did you do yours? because i have read that the saudi council will just send the cert to your email....please help..thank you so much....//

hi. i accepted an offer to work as a nurse assistant in university hospital in saudi, i am a nurse. i am done with my medical. for now im in the verification process. just wanted to ask if employers in saudi still verify work experience that is not related to nursing. i worked in a company for 8 mos (bpo), my mistake i included it in my resume and i am not able to provide coe because of the discrepancy with the date of my employment as a nurse, which i have coe and worked for 2 years. this is my first time to apply abroad and it's really confusing me. any information would be a great help. thank you and God bless. :)
