More than 100 medics and nurses must now be registered in both the UK and Republic of Ireland due to their involvement in cross-border transfers and all-island work.
The five health trusts have been told affected staff must be registered by the end of March.
It is because flexibility that was granted under EU legislation after Brexit is coming to an end.
Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland share some healthcare services.
These include paediatric cardiology services, some adult cardiac services and some cancer services.
