This checklist should be seen as an aid to ensure you are providing the Dental Council with a complete application for
registration. It is advisable that you read this checklist in its entirety before compiling your application as omitted
information can lead to a delay in processing or may lead to your application being returned to you.
The Dental Council reserve the right to seek further information if required.
1. Application form
Your form must be completed in English and in its entirety. The application should be signed and dated at the
time of submission.
If you are submitting work or registration history separately from your application form, please be sure to read
the content guidelines in the relevant section of the application form. Each must be signed and dated before
submission.
2. Identification
Please provide a clear photocopy of your passport. Your photograph and signature must be visible. If you are a
citizen/national of more than one country, please provide a photocopy of each passport.
3. Language proficiency
From the 1 November 2018 all applicants are required to prove their proficiency in the English language as part
of the registration requirements. The Council have set standards that you must meet and they have approved
several ways in which you can meet these standards and prove your proficiency. We have dedicated a webpage
to all the information you will need to compile the evidence required for submission with your application.
Please read the information available thoroughly; http://www.dentalcouncil.ie/Language%20proficiency.php
4. Photocopy of qualification
Photocopy of your official certificate. The signature of the dean and the university stamp must be visible. This is
usually the certificate that is presented to you at the conferring of your qualification.
6. Translations
If any of the documentation listed in points 4 and 5 above are in a language other than English, you must have
them translated and duly notarised. Both the original requested document and its original translation should be
forwarded.
Notarised translations are an exact translation of the source material. A photocopy of the document that has
been translated must be attached to the official translation by the translator. The translator must stamp or affix a
seal to each of the pages to clearly indicate that they have been bound by the translator. They must certify that
the photocopied document attached to the translation is an exact copy of the document used to make his/her
translation.
The document must always include a clause from the translator and their information.
Notarised translations must be intact upon submission or they will be returned to you.
