International Practice License

Definition and Purpose

The International Practice License (IPL) is a formal document issued by EUGPR that certifies a professional’s completion of a verified program of study from an affiliated institution. It serves as a centralized, third-party validation of the holder’s eligibility to practice, consult, or apply their knowledge in a professional setting, particularly in transnational contexts where standard local recognition may be insufficient.

Use Cases

The IPL is not a substitute for national licensure but may be cited for purposes such as employment screening, international CVs, immigration or visa applications, postgraduate enrollment, or freelance consultancy.

Eligibility Requirements

To qualify for an IPL, applicants must:

• Hold a certificate, diploma, or degree from a recognized or EUGPR-affiliated institution.

• Submit complete documentation including transcripts, identity verification, and supporting academic records.

Registration and Validation

Individual Registration Process

Applicants initiate registration through an online portal by submitting credential documents and personal information. The Registry conducts a multi-step validation process that includes document verification, institutional cross-checking, and review by a credentialing officer. If approved, the applicant receives a digital license and is included in the public registry.

Document Standards

Accepted materials include diplomas, transcripts, certificates of completion, and institutional letters of confirmation. All documents must be in English or accompanied by a certified English translation. Notarization or apostille may be required in certain cases.

Verification Timeline

The standard review period is 10–15 working days from the date of submission. Applicants will be notified of approval, rejection, or requests for additional documentation. Appeals are allowed in writing and must be filed within 30 days of notice.
