Dear Ram,

You need to send an e-mail or a letter to the Royal pharmaceutical society of Great Britain (RPSGB) asking them about the necessary documents that you need to send to them, with a fee (around £500), (one of the required documents is passing the academic IELTS exam and getting at least 7/9 in each band), then they will tell you what is the next step in your case, you might be asked to attend an interview with the committee (there is a fee as well), it is like an oral exam, then they decide wether to ask you to do a full time one year course called OSPAP (fee is at least £8000 excluding living expenses, it goes up each year) and pass all its exams then do one year pre-registration training and pass its exam. Or they might ask you to do the 4 years pharmacy course + pre-reg if you are not good at the interview. You might not need to attend the interview but still every overseas pharmacist must do the OSPAP course and pre-reg. As you know you will need to apply for a visa when you need to come to the UK.
