That's the 1st question, the second is: How difficult it is for a foreign doctor to work in Japan and what are tests/certificates required? I heard only doctors graduated from Japanese schools of medicine are eligible, but how about those who can get a diploma or any post-graduate degree from a japanese school of medicine? NB. I am speaking about work residency, not permanent residency. Thanks in advance..

Look at the below question for the 1st question. http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AkLEF8PWZo6l4oeI5LDpKj0AAAAA;_ylv=3?qid=20080819171058AAr5ie8 >but how about those who can get a diploma or any post-graduate degree from a japanese school of medicine? Master's degree does not make you a doctor in Japan. It's meaningless in working world. You must have undergraduate degree of medicine. To get undergraduate diploma in Japan, you are required to finish 6 years medical course since the 1st year. To join these medical courses, you must pass their entrance exams. But those exams require you to know more than average Japanese 18 year old students. So virtually, you must do as much as Japanese kids learn in 12 years between elementary and high schools. If you are determined to do it, go ahead.
