Overview of DHA Professional License in Dubai
An MOH license is a mandatory legal requirement for any healthcare professional seeking to practice medicine in the Northern Emirates of the UAE, including Sharjah, Ajman, Umm Al Quwain, Ras Al Khaimah, and Fujairah. To qualify, applicants must meet educational, professional experience, and licensing requirements verified through Primary Source Verification (PSV). Exams may be required, though some professionals are exempt. The process includes portal registration, document submission, PSV verification, exam clearance, and finally license activation through the employing facility.
The average cost of an MOHAP license ranges from AED 1,662 to AED 5,212, depending on the profession. Obtaining an MOH license in the UAE usually takes 2–3 months, including PSV, exams, and the Ministry of Health review. Each medical license is valid for one year and must be renewed annually, with professionals required to complete 40 CME hours before renewal.

Frequently Asked Questions
Here are the most common questions our experts encounter throughout their business experience.
Who regulates healthcare professional licensing in the UAE?
What is the difference between MOHAP, DHA, and DOH professional licenses?
Why does a healthcare professional need a license to work in the UAE healthcare sector?
No, you cannot practice medicine in the UAE without a valid license. Federal law makes licensing mandatory, and violations lead to fines, legal penalties, and possible permanent bans. Employers must verify licensing before professionals are allowed to provide patient care.
What are the requirements to get a healthcare license in the UAE?
To obtain a UAE healthcare professional license, applicants must meet the Unified Healthcare Professionals Qualification Requirements (PQR) issued by the Ministry of Health and Prevention (MOHAP). Applicants must also complete the licensing requirements established by the relevant health authority, such as the Dubai Health Authority (DHA) or the Department of Health – Abu Dhabi (DOH).
The primary requirements include personal credentials, such as a photograph and passport copy; professional documents, including qualifications, experience certificates, and registration certificates; Primary Source Verification (PSV) through DataFlow; a Certificate of Good Standing; and passing the required authority exam.
Do you assist with DataFlow PSV verification?
Yes. Felix Happich Consultancy assists healthcare professionals with DataFlow Primary Source Verification (PSV) as part of the UAE healthcare licensing process. We guide applicants in preparing and submitting their documents, including educational qualifications, employment records, professional licenses, and other required credentials, as well as collecting the final verification report.
How long does it take to get a medical license in the UAE?
The UAE healthcare professional licensing process typically takes between 2 and 6 months to complete. The exact timeframe depends on document verification, exam completion, and final application review.
Healthcare professionals usually complete DataFlow Primary Source Verification within 6–12 weeks and finish the Prometric exam within 2–4 weeks. In many cases, the exam process can run alongside document verification. After these steps, the health authority usually takes another 2–6 weeks to review the application and issue a licensing decision.
Processing time also varies by authority. DHA licensing usually takes 4–12 weeks, DOH licensing takes around 4–14 weeks, and MOHAP licensing may take several months because additional document approvals may be required before DataFlow verification begins.
What documents are required for a DHA professional license application?
A UAE healthcare professional license typically costs between AED 3,000 and AED 7,500. The total cost depends on the applicant’s profession, selected emirate, licensing authority, exam requirements, and document verification fees.
The total licensing cost includes several mandatory fees. The license application fee is usually AED 100. DataFlow Primary Source Verification (PSV) typically costs between AED 990 and AED 1,680. The Prometric examination fee usually ranges from AED 100 to AED 200, while the processing or administrative fee is approximately AED 600.
After approval, the license issuance fee may range from AED 3,500 to AED 7,500, depending on the licensing authority and professional category.
