Healthcare professionals who want to practise in Dubai must hold a licence from the Dubai Health Authority. The process is structured and document-heavy, so understanding each stage saves time.
Primary Source Verification
Your qualifications and experience are verified through DataFlow before the DHA assesses your eligibility. Accurate documents and consistent dates are essential to avoid delays.
Eligibility and Examination
Once eligibility is confirmed, most applicants sit a computer-based assessment relevant to their specialty. After passing, you register through the Sheryan platform.
Licence Activation
The final licence is activated once you have an employer and the remaining documents are submitted. From there you can legally practise within your approved scope.
