The transfer note is issued by the college where the pharmacist is registered, based on an application. Before the transfer note is issued, the requesting pharmacist is required to pay up to date the membership fee owed to the college from which they wish to transfer. The transfer note will be handed over, with signature, to the applicant. In the pharmacists' record register, the college to which the pharmacist has transferred will be mentioned. If a complaint has been filed or a disciplinary investigation has been initiated against the pharmacist at the college from which they are transferring, the complaint or, as the case may be, the disciplinary file will be sent to the college to which the pharmacist is transferring.
