I did not write that the answer was no. Only that as the medical records must be kept in the country who issued the license, renewing the medical certificate in another country will incur extra costs.
Up to now, if you moved to a different country, you could have your records transfered to your new country and keep your licence where it was. For instance, I have my licence issued by a country, and my medical records kept by another country. I'll have to either move my licence or my medical records within the next months. If fact I will move both licence and medical records to a third country.
