All affected practitioners are strongly advised to utilize this window to:

Update their personal records on the MDCN portal
Complete payment of the required 2026 practising licence fees

All completed payments and updates will be duly reflected in the Master Register.

Important notice:

Payments for the 2026 practising licence made from 6th January 2026 onwards will automatically attract the applicable surcharge for late renewal
