Update 9 April 2026
Due to the continuing geopolitical uncertainty in the Middle East, RCPI examination staff and College representatives have been advised not to undertake international travel at this time to the region. This measure will remain in place until the situation fully de-escalates, in the interest of safety and security.
As a result, the College has taken the difficult decision to postpone the April - June MRCPI Clinical Examinations in the Middle East. This decision has been made following careful consideration of the safety and wellbeing of candidates, examiners, and staff, as well as the College’s ability to deliver the examination in line with required academic and governance standards.
We will continue to monitor the situation closely, and expect to confirm rescheduled examination dates in the coming months.
