UK-issued cabin crew medical reports

Cabin crew medical reports issued by a UK Civil Aviation Authority (CAA)-approved Aeromedical Examiner (AME) or Occupational Health Medical Practitioner (OHMP) are required on UK-registered aircraft.

For aircraft registered in one of the EU countries, UK-issued medical reports are unlikely to be recognised. Cabin crew should contact their airline and / or the National Aviation Authority for the country where their airline’s aircraft are registered to establish arrangements for any recognition of their medical report.

EU-issued cabin crew medical reports

Cabin crew medical reports issued by EU Member State AMEs or OHMPs after the 1 January 2021 will not be recognised by the UK. Cabin crew who become unfit after this date should consult a UK CAA-approved AME or UK OHMP.
