Registration under TTMR
The Trans-Tasman Mutual Recognition Act (TTMRA) 1997 recognises Australian and New Zealand registration standards
as equivalent and enhances the freedom of registered professionals to work in either country.
Under TTMRA if you are registered as an oral health practitioner in a participating jurisdiction in Australia,
you are entitled, after applying to the Dental Council, to be registered in the same occupation in New Zealand.
Trans-Tasman Mutual Recognition therefore provides an alternative avenue for obtaining registration in New
Zealand. Applicants have the choice of applying for registration under the TTMRA or under the Health Practitioners
Competence Assurance Act 2003.
Application Process under TTMRA
You need to complete an application (Form REG004) and
send it with the required fees and documentation to the Dental Council.
Overseas-trained practitioners are also required to read the New Zealand Conditions of
Practice Resource Book.
