On April 24, the Sanya Business Environment Development Bureau announced streamlined procedures for foreign doctors applying to practice short-term in China, reducing paperwork and improving service efficiency.

4 月 24 日，三亚市营商环境建设局宣布简化外国医生申请在中国短期行医的程序，减少文书工作，提高服务效率。

Foreign physicians are no longer required to submit a health certificate during the application. Instead, the health documentation will be submitted on-site by the medical institution during a supervisory inspection by the Sanya Health Commission. This adjustment aims to simplify procedures and enhance administrative convenience.

在申请过程中，外国医生不再需要提交健康证明。取而代之的是，在三亚市卫生委员会的监督性检查期间，由医疗机构在实地提交健康文件。这种调整旨在简化程序，增强行政便利性。

Under the new guidelines, foreign doctors applying for short-term medical practice in Sanya must now provide the following documents:

根据新的指南，现在申请在三亚短期行医的外国医生必须提供以下文件：

•Application form for short-term medical practice in China;

•中国短期行医申请表；

•Degree certificate;

•学位证书；

•A valid medical license or proof of medical practice rights in their home country;

•在其本国有效的行医执照或行医权利证明；

•Proof of invitation or employment from a medical institution in China, along with either a formal agreement or a letter of civil liability commitment.

•来自中国医疗机构的邀请或雇佣证明，以及正式协议或民事责任承诺书。

All degree certificates and medical licenses must be notarized by an embassy or certified under the Hague Apostille Convention.

所有学位证书和行医执照必须由大使馆公证或根据《海牙公约》进行认证。

A representative from the Sanya Business Environment Development Bureau stated that the streamlined process is intended to reduce the time and effort foreign doctors spend on administrative procedures. The goal is to attract more high-caliber international medical professionals to Sanya, enhance the city’s healthcare services, and offer residents and tourists a wider range of quality medical options in line with global standards.

三亚市营商环境建设局的一位代表表示，简化程序旨在减少外国医生在行政程序上花费的时间和精力。目标是吸引更多高素质的国际医疗专业人员到三亚，提升该市的医疗服务水平，为居民和游客提供更广泛的符合全球标准的优质医疗选择。
