MOH / DHA Healthcare Professional Licensing

Dataflow, exam booking and license processing for medical professionals and facilities.

Quick answer: Healthcare professionals in the UAE must be licensed by the relevant authority — MOHAP (Northern Emirates including Sharjah), DHA (Dubai) or DOH (Abu Dhabi). The process involves credential verification (DataFlow), eligibility assessment, licensing exams (where applicable) and final license issuance. Al Karam manages the application chain for doctors, nurses, pharmacists, technicians and allied health professionals.

Healthcare licensing is document-heavy and unforgiving: DataFlow primary source verification of every degree, experience letter and prior license; exact experience-year requirements per title; Prometric exams for many categories; and authority-specific portals. Errors cost months.

We assess which authority and professional title fits your credentials, prepare and submit DataFlow with correctly formatted documents, book exams and track eligibility, and process the final license — including transfers between authorities and facility staff licensing for clinics and pharmacies.

Frequently asked questions

Which authority should I apply to — MOH, DHA or DOH?

It depends where you will work: MOHAP covers Sharjah and Northern Emirates, DHA covers Dubai, DOH covers Abu Dhabi. Licenses can later be transferred; we advise the fastest route for your job plans.

Typically 3–8 weeks depending on how quickly source institutions respond. Correct document formatting upfront is the main thing that prevents delays.
