fpgeeLA Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 Hi everyone, I'm a U.S citizen, who graduated in Germany. Due to the lack of the german citizenship, I'm only eligible to get a restricted license in Germany. Fpgec keeps turning me down and wont give me an alternative other than to get a license from a different country!!! Has anyone had the similiar problem? Please, help me, I'm really desperate. Thanks, fpgeeLA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fpgeeLA Posted April 25, 2011 Author Share Posted April 25, 2011 Hi farmamania1, I still havent found a solution. I even thought of going back to school here to get it over with, but we would have to do the whole 4 year program all over again! I'm still desperately searching for a solution!!!! If you find one please let me know. Is your situation exactly like mine or different? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kumar8O Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 fpgeeLA and farmamania1 A written request for an "Affidavit for Lack of Licensure" must be submitted with the application materials. The Foreign Pharmacy Graduate Examination Committee™ (FPGEC®) will provide further information concerning this procedure to eligible candidates. The candidate must also submit official documentation verified by his or her pharmacy school or the applicable government agency that neither licensing nor registration was required. once you do this NABP will send you form to fill out. I highly recommend you hire lawyer who specialize in pharmacy law. it may cost you but it will be worth it. i hope this was helps you.

shutterfly Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 I am not able to obtain a license or registration due to my citizenship in the country I studied. Will I face the same problem?

fpgeeLA Posted November 7, 2011 Author Share Posted November 7, 2011 Hi Shutterfly, I'm not sure what your situation is exactly, but I haven't found a solution yet.

shutterfly Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 Hi FpgeeLA, Where you given a restricted license? I was told I would be able to apply and be approved as long as I can prove I am not able to be license in the country I received my degree in. I was also told by NABP I am not required to have a license or registration from another country either. I know everyone situation is different and for unique situations they rule case by case but what did they tell you exactly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max2274 Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Hello great Pharmacists! I obtained my pharmacy degree in Russia which I am not a citizen of. After obtaining my degree, I moved to England and completed my PhD in pharmacy, followed by postdoctoral fellowship in the US. I am preparing my documents for NABP and I think I'll be in trouble since I do not have registration or licence from Russia or elsewhere. As I understood (based on other user's comments in URCH), the "Affidavit for Failure to Obtain Licensure in a Foreign Jurisdiction” letter submitted with the application materials may not be useful. I was wondering if anyone has any solutions for this issue. Feel free to email me your response: maxpharma6@gmail.com Any help is greatly appreciated!
