Locum Registrations 2026 Registrar and/or House Officer

Overview In order to undertake locum shifts within the Auckland region Districts you will first need to successfully apply for locum registration and be issued with a locum casual employment contract. This applies also to current RMO's in ongoing employment. Locum contracts are separate to permanent employment contracts. The registration process does involve successful police clearance being received prior to being able to offer locum contract documentation as per our obligations under the Childrens Act 2014. Processing times are determined by NZ Police, can take the full 20 working days, and cannot be expedited. Eligibility Criteria Hold a current and full General Scope of Practise certificate with no restrictions from MCNZ (and have any PGY2 related endorsements removed from your Practising certificate) Have proof of eligibility to work in New Zealand Have a current ACLS Certificate (or if a current employee proof of future booking if expired) Have proof of current Indemnity Insurance Employment Process The employment process involves: Completing an online application form and providing an up to date CV. Please download the NRA CV template here. Uploading the required documents as per the “Required Documents” section below. References If you are in current permanent employment within the Auckland Region we will only require one reference from your current run (as long as you have been in that run for 1 month or more; if not, then the run you’ve just completed). If you are an external applicant, we will require two satisfactory references. One must be from your current run allocation at the time of applying, and one must be from your run allocation directly preceding your current run allocation.

You will receive a request to do this after you have formally applied and your application has been reviewed as suitable to complete the locum registration process.
