Language requirement for midwives
Midwifery is a regulated profession in Germany. For recognition, the responsible authority in the federal state checks the foreign qualification and asks for proof of German skills. We are not aware of a nationwide standard professional-language exam for midwives. The facts below have not yet been checked against an official source.
Who it is for: Midwives with a foreign qualification who apply for permission to use the professional title in Germany.
