The National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences (NBEMS) has officially concluded the compliance window for the FMGE December 2025 session. Aspirants who were flagged for deficient documents had until the cut-off to rectify their applications via the official portal. This final stage of the pre-examination process ensures that only candidates meeting the strict eligibility criteria set by the National Medical Commission (NMC) proceed to the screening test. With the window now shut, the focus shifts toward the release of admit cards and the final conduct of the examination.

The compliance portal was specifically opened for candidates to address discrepancies in their primary medical qualifications and personal identification. NBEMS had previously identified several applications with "deficient" status, ranging from blurred images to missing apostilled degree certificates.
- Closed Portal: The link for uploading deficient documents is no longer active as of the January deadline.
- Finality of Submissions: NBEMS has clarified that no further opportunities for document correction will be provided.
- Eligibility Status: Candidates who failed to submit the required proof of qualification or citizenship by the cut-off may find their candidature cancelled.
