Frequently Asked Questions – UAE Medical Licence Renewal

Common questions about renewing DHA, DOH, and MOHAP medical licences in the UAE.

How long is a UAE medical licence valid?

DHA and DOH licences are renewed annually, while MOHAP registration is valid for 5 years. All renewals require proof of Continuing Medical Education (CME) hours completed during the licence period.

What documents do I need to renew my UAE medical licence?

You typically need CME certificates, a good standing letter from your employer, valid Emirates ID and passport, and (for doctors aged 60+) a physical and mental health report. Requirements vary slightly by licensing authority.

How do I apply for UAE medical licence renewal?

For DHA, use the Dubai Health Authority online portal. For DOH, apply via the Sheryan platform. For MOHAP, log in via the Ministry website or smart app using UAE PASS, submit documents, and pay the renewal fee.

What happens if my UAE medical licence expires?

An expired licence means you cannot legally practise in the UAE. Reinstatement is far more complex than routine renewal and may require re-sitting exams or repeating DataFlow verification. Always renew before the expiry date.

How long does UAE medical licence renewal take?

Routine renewals are typically processed within 1–3 weeks if all documents are in order. MediFlow handles the complete renewal process for doctors to ensure no interruption in their ability to practise.
