New Delhi: Through a recent notice, the National Medical Commission (NMC) has told the medical colleges they need not pay the requisite fee for Renewal, Recognition or Continuation of Recognition for the academic year 2024-25, if they have already made the payment.
Earlier, stating that the submission of the Annual Declaration Form on the National Medical Commission’s (NMC) portal is mandatory for annual renewal of permission of undergraduate MBBS seats, the Undergraduate Medical Education Board (UGMEB) of NMC directed all medical colleges to fill their details on NMC portal.

Now, the NMC has told the medical colleges that have already made the payment to not pay the requisite fee again but they need to submit the details of the payment made with the NMC. The recent notice read:
“All Medical Colleges/Institutes are hereby informed that in case such Medical Colleges/Institutes have already paid the requisite fee for Renewal/Recognition/ Continuation of Recognition for the year 2024-25 need not to pay the fee again. Details of the payment made are required to be filled in the requisite column in payment gateway of the portal along with the supporting documents”
