**Quick answer:** There is no NMC-approved list of foreign medical universities. NMC's study-abroad information desk says it does not endorse any list of foreign medical institutions or universities for MBBS; instead, your course is checked against the FMGL Regulations, 2021 when you apply for FMGE and registration. What NMC does publish is dated advisories. Its alert notes named three Belize institutions and a Tashkent State Medical University branch (July 2025), and three Uzbek universities plus an offshore campus in Bangalore (April 2026). Check any university yourself against FMGL, WDOMS, the host-country regulator and NBEMS FMGE data.

Key facts:
- Category: Rules & exams

Key takeaways:
- NMC's information desk states that it “does not endorse any list of Foreign Medical Institutions/ Universities for MBBS or equivalent course”; the only college list NMC publishes is of medical colleges in India.
- Whether a foreign degree leads to an Indian licence is judged against FMGL 2021 (54 months of study plus a 12-month internship at the same institution, English medium, licence on par with citizens) when you apply for FMGE and registration.
- NMC keeps no standing blacklist. Its July 2025 and April 2026 alert notes named seven foreign institutions or branches in Belize and Uzbekistan, plus one offshore campus in Bangalore.
- The April 2026 Uzbekistan alert is a warning, not a ban: in clarifications reported in August 2026, the Indian Embassy in Tashkent called it precautionary.
- NMC's advisory of 5 November 2026 targets fake and unapproved colleges in India; it names no foreign university but tells students not to pay agents, personal bank accounts or unverified intermediaries.
- In the December 2025 FMGE session, graduates of the three Belize institutions passed at about 7–17%, against 23.94% for all candidates (NBEMS).

## Is there an NMC-approved list of foreign medical universities?

**No. The National Medical Commission (NMC) does not publish, and says it does not endorse, any list of foreign medical universities.** Its "For Students to Study Abroad" information desk states that "the National Medical Commission does not endorse any list of Foreign Medical Institutions/ Universities for MBBS or equivalent course". It tells students to obtain "the fee structure, details of the course (which should be commensurate with the MBBS courses in India such as content, duration and internship)" directly from the university.

The same page explains where the idea of a list comes from. The erstwhile Medical Council of India "had provided a list of foreign Medical Institutions/Universities" based on information from Indian embassies and high commissions. NMC mentions that list only to distance itself from it. Old copies still circulate, sometimes relabelled "NMC approved list 2026".

The list NMC does run is of medical colleges **in India**. On NMC's information desk, "List of College Teaching MBBS" sits under "For Students to Study in India"; the "For Students to Study Abroad" section has only "General Information" and "Equivalence of Foreign Medical Qualification". The study-abroad page still describes the older Screening Test Regulations, 2002. Anyone who joined a foreign course on or after 18 November 2021 is governed by the [FMGL Regulations, 2021](https://4mbbs.com/guides/nmc-fmgl-rules-mbbs-abroad/).

So "is this university NMC approved?" has a short answer: NMC approves no foreign university. The question that decides your career is whether **your programme meets FMGL 2021**, and that is tested when you apply for FMGE, internship and registration, after five or six years abroad.

## What NMC publishes instead

**NMC publishes rules, dated warnings and a list of Indian colleges, not a list of foreign ones.** This table maps the common searches to what actually exists as of November 2026.

| What people search for | Does NMC publish it? | What actually exists |
|---|---|---|
| "NMC approved foreign universities list" | No | A written disclaimer on NMC's information desk, plus the FMGL 2021 conditions your course must meet |
| "NMC blacklisted universities" | No standing list | Dated advisories and alert notes, two of which name foreign institutions (see the register below) |
| "NMC approved medical colleges" | Yes, for India only | NMC's college and course search and its list of colleges teaching MBBS in India |
| "Recognised foreign degrees" | No university list | The information desk describes a screening-test exemption only for doctors holding both an undergraduate and a postgraduate qualification from Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the UK or the USA; NMC has not said how it applies to students governed by FMGL 2021 |

Rules decide your eligibility; advisories are warnings. An advisory does not rewrite FMGL 2021, but it shows where NMC, Indian embassies and the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) already see problems.

## NMC advisories on foreign medical study, 2022–2026

**These are the NMC notices about studying medicine abroad that 4MBBS opened and read, as of 14 November 2026.** Most are NMC PDFs, on nmc.org.in or hosted by Medical Dialogues. The two 2022 notices survive only as image scans, so for those we rely on Medical Dialogues' quotations.

| Date | Notice | What it says | Institutions or countries named | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 8 Feb 2022 | Notice on China | Some Chinese universities were advertising MBBS admissions while students could not enter China; NMC "does not recognize or approve medical courses done only by online mode" | China; no university named | [Medical Dialogues](https://medicaldialogues.in/amp/health-news/nmc/mbbs-in-china-nmc-warns-aspirants-of-travel-restrictions-reminds-of-fmg-regulations-88316) |

| 8 Aug 2023 | Public notice | Foreign curricula, time frames and training are often "not in consonance" with NMC rules; check every FMGL condition before admission; "the sole responsibility shall lie upon the candidate" | None | [NMC PDF](https://medicaldialogues.in/pdf_upload/nmc-advisory-for-fmgs-216032.pdf) |
| 22 Nov 2023 | Public notice | De-recognises the Philippines BS course from 18 Nov 2021; extra internship year for MD students admitted before then, as their course "is of 48 months only"; one-time Ukraine transfer window; 10-year limit to appear in FMGE/NExT | Philippines and Ukraine (countries) | [NMC PDF](https://medicaldialogues.in/pdf_upload/nmc-public-notice-226019.pdf) |
| 22 Nov 2024 | Public notice | Students are still joining private colleges abroad that do not follow NMC regulations; any variation "may lead to disqualification" | None | [NMC PDF](https://medicaldialogues.in/pdf_upload/nmc-alert-abroad-262573.pdf) |
| 19 May 2025 | Advisory | Alert on unauthorised colleges and off-shore programmes; restates FMGL, including "clinical training must not be done in parts or across different countries"; graduates of non-compliant institutions "will be held ineligible for licensing exams i.e. FMGE" | Two colleges in India (Singhania University, Rajasthan; Sanjiban Hospital and Medical College, Howrah); no foreign institution | [NMC PDF](https://medicaldialogues.in/pdf_upload/nmc-advisory-on-unauthorised-medical-colleges-and-off-shore-programs-287437.pdf) |
| 21 Jul 2025 | Alert note | Reports from the Indian Embassy in Mexico and the MEA's Eurasia Division of missing campus infrastructure, poor clinical training, harassment, excessive fees and refused refunds; students "strictly advised to avoid seeking admission" | Belize: Central American Health and Sciences University, Columbus Central University, Washington University of Health and Sciences. Uzbekistan: Chirchik Branch of Tashkent State Medical University | [NMC PDF](https://medicaldialogues.in/pdf_upload/nmc-alert-note-advisory-for-indian-students-seeking-admission-to-foreign-institutes-universities-for-undergraduate-medical-courses-295377.pdf) |
| 1 Apr 2026 | Alert note | From the Embassy of India in Tashkent: admissions beyond intake capacity, no hands-on training because teaching is not in English, complaints about an offshore model; "extreme caution" for Uzbekistan "or similar destinations" | Bukhara State Medical Institute; Samarkand State Medical University; Tashkent State Medical University; TIT Institute of Medical Sciences, Bangalore (offshore campus of TSMU Termez Branch) | [NMC PDF](https://medicaldialogues.in/pdf_upload/2026/04/02/nmc-advisory-for-indian-students-seeking-admission-to-foreign-institutes-universities-for-undergraduate-medical-courses-in-uzbekistan-reg-339075.pdf) |
| 5 Nov 2026 | Advisory | Verify a college's authenticity, approved intake and documents before admission or payment; no payments to agents or personal bank accounts | None; aimed at colleges in India | [NMC](https://nmc.org.in/whats-new/download/1885) |

Two notes on dates. The July 2025 PDF is dated only "July, 2025"; NMC's April 2026 note cites it as the "Alert Note dated 21st July, 2025". The November 2026 advisory is dated 05-11-2026 on the document and appears under 6 November on NMC's "What's new" page.

Between them, the July 2025 and April 2026 alert notes name **seven foreign institutions or branches**, plus one offshore campus inside India. These are the names behind most "NMC blacklist" headlines. The 2023, 2024 and May 2025 notices name no foreign institution; they restate FMGL 2021 and put the risk on the student.

## Does NMC have a blacklist of foreign medical universities?

**No. NMC keeps no standing blacklist; it issues dated warnings whose strength varies.** The July 2025 alert note "strictly advised" students "to avoid seeking admission" in four named institutions. The April 2026 note asked for "extreme caution" and warned that "failure to follow this advisory may result in ineligibility for medical registration in India".

Both notes also tell students to "consult the Indian Embassy of the concerned country for updates on recognition or blacklisting of institutions". In other words, NMC itself points you to the embassies for the current position.

Two consequences follow:

1. **An alert is not a ruling on any individual degree.** Eligibility is decided under FMGL 2021 when you apply for FMGE and registration. But studying at a named institution, against NMC's written advice, is a risk only you carry.
2. **Not being named is not clearance.** Most non-compliant programmes never appear in an NMC notice. A five-year course with no internship at the university fails FMGL 2021 whether or not NMC has ever mentioned it.

## What does the NMC advisory of 5 November 2026 say?

**It tells students and parents to verify a medical college's authenticity and regulatory approval before taking admission or paying anything.** NMC's Under-Graduate Medical Education Board issued it (No. U-15024/10/2026-UGMEB) after the Supreme Court, in the ongoing case Ayesha Jain v. Amity University, Noida & Ors., directed all regulators, including NMC, to caution students and parents. The court acted on a reported fake medical college "operating from a farmhouse".

The advisory lists eight precautions:

1. Check that the college is on NMC's official list of medical colleges, with permission for the relevant academic year.
2. Check the approved intake for that year through NMC and Medical Assessment and Rating Board records; past operation is not permission.
3. Do not rely on brochures, websites, social media posts or "purported Letters of Permission"; verify doubtful documents with the regulator.
4. Use official counselling, including the Medical Counselling Committee, where it applies.
5. Be cautious about "extraordinary claims" on clinical training or hospital facilities.
6. Do not make admission-related payments "to unauthorized agents, personal bank accounts or unverified intermediaries".
7. Approval or recognition from another authority "should not be construed as permission from the National Medical Commission to conduct an MBBS course".
8. Report fake colleges, forged letters and fraudulent offers to NMC, the state medical education department and local police, and keep advertisements, payment receipts and correspondence.

**Its scope is colleges in India.** It names no institution and says nothing specific about universities abroad. Precautions 3, 6 and 7 still apply word for word to an MBBS-abroad offer: verify documents at the source, pay only the university, and treat one authority's approval as exactly that. Our [agent scams guide](https://4mbbs.com/guides/mbbs-abroad-agent-scams-red-flags/) shows how these frauds look in practice.

## Is MBBS in Uzbekistan banned after the NMC alerts?

**No ban has been announced, but Uzbekistan now carries two NMC alert notes and needs a university-by-university check.** The July 2025 note named the Chirchik Branch of Tashkent State Medical University. The April 2026 note named [Bukhara State Medical Institute](https://4mbbs.com/mbbs-in-uzbekistan/bukhara-state-medical-institute/), [Samarkand State Medical University](https://4mbbs.com/mbbs-in-uzbekistan/samarkand-state-medical-university/), [Tashkent State Medical University](https://4mbbs.com/mbbs-in-uzbekistan/tashkent-state-medical-university/) and the TIT Institute of Medical Sciences campus in Bangalore.

The April note also records complaints of "serious violations" of FMGL 2021 by the TSMU Termez Branch "in association with" the Bangalore campus. It also mentions testimonies from Indian students who studied in Bukhara through a private contractor.

In clarifications reported by Medical Dialogues on 10 August 2026, the Indian Embassy in Tashkent said the advisory is "precautionary" and "does not amount to a ban". The Haryana Medical Council said its own advisory on the three universities should not be read as an admission ban either. On 5 November 2026, Medical Dialogues reported that the MEA spokesperson, asked about falling Indian enrolment in Uzbekistan, urged students to "have a look at the advisories that have been issued".

## How do I check whether a foreign medical university meets NMC rules?

**Run five checks yourself; no single website, list or agent answers the question.** Each check answers a different part of it.

| Check | Where | What it tells you | What it does not tell you |
|---|---|---|---|
| FMGL 2021 conditions | University curriculum, internship plan and contract | Whether your programme can lead to an Indian licence | Anything about teaching quality |
| WDOMS listing | search.wdoms.org | The school exists and is recognised by its government | Accreditation or NMC approval |
| Host-country recognition | Ministry of health or education, the national regulator, the Indian embassy | Whether the school may legally teach and award degrees this year | Whether the course meets FMGL |
| FMGE results | NBEMS institute-wise reports, natboard.edu.in | How recent graduates performed in India's licensing exam | Whether today's programme complies |
| Advisories | NMC public notices and the Indian embassy website | Problems already known to Indian authorities | Clearance, if the school is not named |

### 1. The FMGL 2021 conditions

Ask the university, in writing, to show at least 54 months of study and a separate 12-month internship at the same institution. The teaching must be in English throughout, the Schedule-I subjects must be covered, and the whole course must be in one institution in one country. Graduates must be eligible for a licence there on par with citizens. Our [FMGL rules guide](https://4mbbs.com/guides/nmc-fmgl-rules-mbbs-abroad/) goes clause by clause, and you also need a qualifying [NEET-UG result](https://4mbbs.com/guides/neet-for-mbbs-abroad/).

### 2. The WDOMS listing

WFME describes the World Directory of Medical Schools as a directory of "over 3,700 schools", each added after its operational status and government recognition are confirmed. WFME also says a listing "does not denote recognition, accreditation, or endorsement" by the directory, WFME or its partner organisations. It is a minimum check. Our [WDOMS, ECFMG and WFME guide](https://4mbbs.com/guides/wdoms-ecfmg-wfme-recognition/) shows how to read an entry.

### 3. Recognition in the host country

Host-country approval can change quickly. In Kyrgyzstan, the Embassy of India in Bishkek reported on 8 June 2026 that the Ministry of Health had accredited four universities for six years and seven for one year. Thirteen did not pass state accreditation. Three universities, KSMA, KRSU and Manas, were not subject to it.

Five of the names on the failed list appear to correspond to colleges in NMC's February 2022 Kyrgyzstan warning: Avicenna, ADAM, Royal Metropolitan, International Medical University and Salymbekov. Read the [MBBS in Kyrgyzstan](https://4mbbs.com/mbbs-in-kyrgyzstan/) page for what this means for current students.

### 4. NBEMS FMGE results

NBEMS publishes institute-wise FMGE performance reports, most recently for 2025. They show outcomes, not compliance. An FMGL-compliant course takes at least five and a half years, so eligible candidates in the 2025 reports joined before FMGL 2021 took effect. For example, the December 2025 report still lists graduates of the three Belize institutions NMC warned about in July 2025:

| Institution (as named by NBEMS) | Appeared | Passed | Pass rate |
|---|---|---|---|
| Central America Health Sciences University | 30 | 5 | 16.67% |
| Central America Health Sciences University Belize Medical College | 96 | 7 | 7.29% |
| Columbus Central University School of Medicine | 94 | 8 | 8.51% |
| Washington University of Health and Sciences | 29 | 4 | 13.79% |
| All candidates, all countries | 42,868 | 10,264 | 23.94% |

Look at two or three sessions, because small cohorts swing widely. Our [FMGE exam guide](https://4mbbs.com/guides/fmge-exam/) explains the exam and the national pass rates.

### 5. NMC and embassy advisories

Check NMC's "What's new" and public notices for the country and the university, then the Indian embassy's website in that country. The embassy often learns of problems first: the July 2025 and April 2026 NMC alerts both began as embassy or MEA communications.

## How to answer "Is [university] NMC approved?"

**Rewrite the question into five you can actually verify.** For any university an agent offers you, ask:

1. Does the programme give 54+ months of English-medium study plus a 12-month internship at this same university, and can you show me the document?
2. Can a foreign graduate get a full licence in this country, on par with a citizen?
3. Is the school listed in WDOMS, and is it recognised and accredited by the host government this year?
4. What did its graduates score in the last two or three NBEMS FMGE reports?
5. Has NMC or the Indian embassy issued any advisory about this university, its branches or its country?

If an agent answers with "it is on the NMC list", you have learned something about the agent, not the university. Our guide on [how to choose a medical university abroad](https://4mbbs.com/guides/how-to-choose-medical-university-abroad/) turns these checks into a scoring sheet, and our [country comparison](https://4mbbs.com/countries/) shows where FMGL fit is typically good, mixed or poor.

## FAQ

**Is there an official NMC-approved list of foreign medical universities for 2026?**
No. NMC's study-abroad information desk says it “does not endorse any list of Foreign Medical Institutions/ Universities for MBBS or equivalent course” and tells students to confirm fees and course details directly with the university. No list exists for 2026 or any other year. Your foreign course is judged against the FMGL Regulations, 2021 when you apply for FMGE and registration. A list sold as “NMC-approved” is an agent's or a website's own compilation.

**Does NMC publish a blacklist of foreign medical universities?**
Not as a standing list. NMC issues dated advisories and alert notes. The July 2025 alert told students to avoid three institutions in Belize and the Chirchik Branch of Tashkent State Medical University; the April 2026 alert asked for extreme caution about Bukhara State Medical Institute, Samarkand State Medical University, Tashkent State Medical University and an offshore campus in Bangalore. A university that has never been named is not thereby compliant; you still have to check it against FMGL 2021.

**How do I check if a foreign medical university is NMC approved?**
Ask a different question: does this programme meet FMGL 2021 for someone joining now? Get in writing at least 54 months of English-medium study, a 12-month internship at the same institution and eligibility for a licence in that country on par with citizens. Then check the school in WDOMS, confirm its recognition with the host-country ministry or regulator, read NMC and Indian embassy advisories for that country, and look up its graduates in the NBEMS institute-wise FMGE report.

**Is MBBS in Uzbekistan banned by NMC?**
No ban has been announced. NMC's alert note of 1 April 2026 named Bukhara State Medical Institute, Samarkand State Medical University, Tashkent State Medical University and TIT Institute of Medical Sciences, Bangalore, citing admissions beyond capacity and clinical training not in English. In clarifications reported in August 2026, the Indian Embassy in Tashkent called the alert precautionary and not a ban. Treat Uzbekistan as a country where each university must be checked against FMGL 2021.

**What does the NMC advisory of 5 November 2026 say?**
It asks students and parents to verify a medical college's authenticity and regulatory status before taking admission or paying anything. NMC issued it after the Supreme Court, in Ayesha Jain v. Amity University, directed regulators to caution students, following a reported fake medical college run from a farmhouse. It deals with colleges in India and names no foreign university, but its advice not to pay agents, personal bank accounts or unverified intermediaries applies to MBBS abroad too.

**Is a university listed in WDOMS approved by NMC?**
No. The World Directory of Medical Schools confirms that a school exists and is recognised by its own government; WFME says a listing “does not denote recognition, accreditation, or endorsement” by the directory or its sponsoring organisations. NMC does not use WDOMS as an approval list. A WDOMS entry is a sensible minimum check, but your specific programme still has to meet the FMGL 2021 conditions. Our [WDOMS guide](https://4mbbs.com/guides/wdoms-ecfmg-wfme-recognition/) explains how to read a listing.

**What was the MCI list of foreign medical universities?**
The erstwhile Medical Council of India once provided a list of foreign medical institutions based on information from Indian embassies and high commissions. NMC's information desk mentions that list only to add that NMC does not endorse any list of foreign institutions. Old copies still circulate and are sometimes presented as an “approved list”. They predate FMGL 2021 and cannot tell you whether a programme you join in 2027 complies.

**If a university's graduates appear in FMGE results, does it meet NMC rules?**
Not necessarily. The NBEMS report shows how many graduates of each university sat and passed FMGE in a session. An FMGL-compliant course takes at least five and a half years, so eligible candidates in the 2025 reports joined before FMGL 2021 took effect on 18 November 2021 and were judged under older rules. Graduates of the Belize institutions NMC warned about in July 2025 still appear in the December 2025 report. Use FMGE results to judge outcomes, not compliance.
