Medical Certificate

Pilots must have a commercial pilot’s license with an instrument rating, must have a medical certificate, and must be certified to fly the types of aircraft that their employer operates. Physical requirements are strict. A medical exam, from an FAA-designated physician, must be taken to get a medical certificate.

Depending on the aircraft that you’ll fly, additional ratings may be necessary such as multi-engine, floatplane, and instrument. All required licenses, permits, ratings, endorsements, and medical certifications must be valid and current.

Portuguese term (edited): Certificado de Capacidade Física (CFF)

physical (examination)

This is non-technical terminology common throughout many or most fields but not necessarily all. It is simply called a "physical" which is short for "physical examination." In a particular field or sector it may carry additional classifications or identifiers such as "Level 2" or "Cat 1."

"Flight physical" is probably the most common type: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flight_physical

WITH ALL DUE RESPECT, the terms offered by my colleagues may be technically correct within certain spheres, they are not at all widely used in American English vernacular.
Peer comment(s):

disagree veratek : a certificate and an examination are two different things - from the very wiki page you posted: Federal regulations describe three classes of medical certificates: Class 3 medical certificates...

Yes but if a person says he has a physical, surely he has the certificate. I was speaking toward comman vernacular rather than technicalities.
