FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Common Questions About Sick Certs

Is an online sick cert valid for my employer?

Yes. Sick certificates from GetYourGP are issued by Irish Medical Council registered GPs and are legally valid for all employers in Ireland. The certificate includes the GP's name, IMC registration number, and practice details.

How quickly can I get a sick certificate?

Most patients receive their sick certificate within 2 hours of their consultation. Same-day appointments are often available, so you can get your cert the same day you need it.

What does a sick certificate cost?

A sick certificate consultation costs €35. This includes the video consultation with an Irish-registered GP and the medical certificate delivered by email.

Can I get a backdated sick cert?

GPs can only certify illness from the date of consultation onwards. If you've been ill for several days, the GP can note this in the certificate, but the official certification date will be the consultation date.

What information is on the sick certificate?

The certificate includes your name, the date(s) of illness, a statement that you are/were unfit for work, the GP's name and IMC registration number, the practice details, and the date of issue.

Can I get a sick cert for my child?

Yes. Parents can book consultations for children under 16. You'll need to be present during the video call, and the sick certificate will be issued in the child's name.

Do you provide fitness-to-work certificates?

Yes. If you've been off sick and need a certificate confirming you're fit to return to work, our GPs can provide this. This is included in the standard consultation fee.

Can I use the sick cert for college or university?

Yes. Our sick certificates are valid for educational institutions including universities, colleges, and schools for exam deferrals or assignment extensions.
