In the pursuit of this examination, it focuses on two groups of individuals, namely EU citizens and third-country nationals, and differentiates between qualifications obtained in the EU and qualifications obtained outside EU. While EU citizens are generally free to pursue their medical profession in any EU Member State, third-country nationals experience difficulties in the recognition of their professional qualifications as they fall outside the scope of specific rules on professional qualifications recognition and do not enjoy free movement rights. The assessment of the applicable rules is followed by a conclusion that the EU citizens are protected under the EU legal framework for the recognition of professional qualifications, however, the legal framework for the recognition of foreign professional qualifications is still absent and depends largely upon general rules applicable to third-country nationals willing to settle and work in the EUČlanek obravnava veljavna pravila v zvezi s priznavanjem poklicnih kvalifikacij zdravnikov v EU. Pri tem se osredotoča na dve skupini posameznikov, in sicer na državljane EU in državljane tretjih držav, ter razlikuje med kvalifikacijami, pridobljenimi v EU, in kvalifikacijami, pridobljenimi zunaj EU. Medtem ko lahko državljani EU na splošno svobodno opravljajo zdravniški poklic v kateri koli državi članici EU, imajo državljani tretjih držav težave pri priznavanju svojih poklicnih kvalifikacij, saj ne spadajo na področje uporabe posebnih pravil o priznavanju poklicnih kvalifikacij in nimajo pravice do prostega gibanja. Na podlagi ocene veljavnih pravil je bilo ugotovljeno, da so državljani EU zaščiteni s pravnim okvirom EU za priznavanje poklicnih kvalifikacij, vendar pravnega okvira za priznavanje tujih poklicnih kvalifikacij še vedno ni in je v veliki meri odvisen od splošnih pravil, ki se uporabljajo za državljane tretjih držav, ki se želijo ustaliti in delati v EUTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaUniverza v Mariboru, Pravna fakulteta
