The first point of contact for this is the approval authority (‘Approbationsbehörde’) for the Federal State where the doctor would initially like to work. The Marburger Bund publishes a list of approval authorities (in German) for the various Federal States.

For example, in Baden-Württemberg, this is the Stuttgart Regional Council (‘Regierungspräsidium’). You can request a list of the required documents from the approval authority. This may include a degree certificate, the course content, a Certificate of Good Standing (‘Unbedenklichkeitsbescheinigung’) or a police clearance certificate. Official German translations of these documents must be submitted to the approval authority. You can obtain translations of official documents from authorised or publicly appointed and sworn translators, who can be found in the database of translators and interpreters provided by the State Justice administrations.
