Can a US licensed PT (who is a permanent resident) be registered in the philippines.
What if someone wanted to go home and practice PT?
under RA 5680 section 21 (Any physical therapist, physiatrist or occupational therapist holding valid certificate of registration issued under the laws of a foreign country may practice his profession in
the Philippines without passing an examination given by the Board15 if the requirements for the registration and
licensing of a physical therapy, physiatrist or occupational therapist in such foreign country are substantially the
same as those provided for in this Act and that the laws of such country or state grant the same privileges to
physical therapist, physiatrists and occupational therapists registered in the Philippines on the same basis as
the subjects or citizens of such foreign country or state.)
is this possible if you licensed in the US, however not licensed in the philippines?
