About Medical Certificates

A medical certificate is a formal document signed by a registered medical practitioner certifying a patient's health status — typically for sick leave, fitness for duty/sport, or medical rest. To be valid in India, certificates must include the doctor's full name, qualification, MCI/State Medical Council registration number, and signature.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is a medical certificate generated here legally valid in India?

Yes. As long as it is signed by a registered medical practitioner (MBBS or equivalent) with a valid State Medical Council or NMC registration number, the certificate is accepted by employers, schools, courts and government offices across India.

What information must a sick leave certificate contain?

Patient name, age, gender, date of examination, diagnosis, rest period (from–to), date of resuming duty, plus the doctor's full name, qualification, registration number, clinic address and signature.

How many days of leave can a doctor certify at once?

No fixed statutory limit in India. Typically 1–7 days for acute illness like fever, viral infection or gastroenteritis. Leave beyond 15 days usually requires a specialist referral or medical board opinion.

Can a patient generate their own medical certificate?

No. Under the Indian Medical Council Act, only a registered doctor can issue a valid medical certificate after examining the patient. This tool is for licensed doctors only.

Is this tool free to use?

100% free — no signup, no watermark, no daily limit. It runs entirely in your browser, so patient data never leaves your device.

Sick leave vs fitness certificate — what's the difference?

A sick leave certificate confirms the patient is unfit for work/school for a specific period. A fitness certificate confirms the patient is medically fit to resume duty, join a job, play a sport or travel.

Can I generate a certificate on my mobile phone?

Yes. The tool is fully responsive and generates PDF certificates on Android and iOS browsers. Print on letterhead or share directly on WhatsApp.
