Replacing your LMCC documents | Medical Council of Canada

How to submit a request to replace your LMCC documents

If you are replacing your documents because your name has changed, follow the instructions on how to request a name change for your LMCC documents.
If you need to replace your LMCC documents for any other reason, follow the steps below:

Download, review, and complete the Request for replacement of LMCC documents form.
If you do not have your original document(s) or are missing one of your documents, you must include an original statutory declaration (i.e., affidavit) as described on the Request for replacement of LMCC documents form. If available, both of your original LMCC documents (Testamur, Certificate of Registration, or both) must be returned to the MCC.
Send the documents from step 1 and step 2 to the MCC mailing address.
Once the MCC receives your form, the service fee for replacing the LMCC testamur and certificate of registration will be applied to your physiciansapply.ca account. Once payment is received, the MCC will begin to process your request.

Please note that the LMCC document replacements due to name changes are issued as “Duplicates of Original as Amended” whereas replacements for reasons other than name changes are issued as “Duplicates.”
