Questions related to FMGE

On Question asked by student community

Have a question related to FMGE ?

Hello,

If you gave your name in the FMGE 2026 form as per Aadhaar and other documents, but your passport has a different full name or surname, then there is a real chance of a name-mismatch problem.

Here is the simple picture:

1. FMGE does not allow name changes after submission.
The name you used in the application cannot be edited later.

2. Your ID proof must match the name on your FMGE application.
If the passport name and application name do not match, the exam centre can refuse entry.
This is also a common issue during document verification after the exam.

3. A mismatch in surname or full name is risky.
FMGE is very strict about name matching, so this can create a problem for you.

There is risk, but it is not hopeless. If you act now and prepare proper documents, you may be able to avoid problems during the exam or verification.

Hope it helps !

Hello,

If there is a spelling mistake in your FMGE passing certificate , you should contact the National Board of Examinations (NBE) , which issues the certificate. Here’s what you can do:

  1. Write an application to NBE explaining the mistake clearly.

    • Mention your name, roll number, exam session, and the correct spelling.

  2. Attach supporting documents , such as:

    • A copy of your FMGE pass certificate (with the error)

    • A valid ID proof (Aadhaar, passport, etc.) showing the correct spelling

    • Your MBBS degree or other educational documents for verification

  3. Send the documents to NBE through email or post.

  4. Wait for their response. NBE will verify your documents and issue a corrected certificate if the mistake is genuine.

It’s best to keep copies of all emails and documents you send.

Hope it helps !

Hello,

If you have an MBBS from Nepal and haven't passed the FMGE, you have several options for further courses abroad, including pursuing a postgraduate degree in countries like the UK, the USA, and Australia, which may not require the FMGE to practice there.

I hope it will clear your query!!

Hello nivedita bm,

For FMGE, passport is the primary form of identification, you must apply using your name exactly as it appears on your passport. If your passport does not have your surname on it and your other documents do, You might face issues during verification.

So, to avoid such problems, you can either prepare a notarized "one and the same person" affidavit linking both names, from your passport and your other documents, or update your passport with your surname to avoid any problems during your FMGE exams.

I hope this will help you.
