Licence Transfer & Conversion

Moving between emirates or switching from one licensing authority to another? MediFlow handles the full transfer and conversion process, ensuring your credentials are recognised by the new regulatory body without unnecessary delays or re-examinations.

Common Transfer Scenarios

DHA → DOH

Relocating from Dubai to Abu Dhabi? We manage the DHA to DOH transfer, including updated PSV and DOH credential review.

MOHAP → DHA

Moving from the Northern Emirates to Dubai requires a full DHA application. MediFlow leverages your existing PSV to speed up the process.

DHA → DHCC

Transitioning to practice within Dubai Healthcare City requires a separate DHCA application even if you hold a current DHA licence.

Home Country → UAE

Converting a foreign licence to a UAE licence for the first time — we identify the right authority and manage the full pathway from scratch.

  1. Review your existing licence and qualifications
  2. Identify the target licensing authority requirements
  3. Determine if existing DataFlow PSV can be reused or must be updated
  4. Submit transfer application via the relevant portal
  5. Coordinate any required exam waivers or exemptions
  6. Receive new licence and update employer records

Frequently Asked Questions – UAE Medical Licence Transfer Between Emirates

Questions about transferring a DHA, DOH, or MOHAP licence to another UAE emirate.

Can I transfer my UAE medical licence to another emirate?

Yes — you can transfer licences between DHA (Dubai), DOH (Abu Dhabi), and MOHAP (northern emirates). Doctors can also hold up to 3 active licences simultaneously, maximising employment options across the UAE.

How long does a UAE medical licence transfer take?

The standard processing time is approximately 4 weeks, depending on how quickly the source authority responds to data requests. MediFlow tracks applications and follows up proactively to minimise delays.

Is there a minimum waiting period before transferring a UAE licence?

Transfers from DHA have no minimum waiting period. DOH transfers require a minimum of 3 months with your current licence. MOHAP transfers also have no minimum waiting period, but employer clearance is always required.

What documents are needed for a UAE licence transfer?

You need an introductory statement from your current facility, a copy of your existing licence, passport, Emirates ID, and a no-objection letter from your current employer before applying to the receiving authority.

Why would a doctor transfer their UAE medical licence?

Doctors transfer licences to access better-paying positions in another emirate, accept a new job offer, or expand their practice. MediFlow advises on the optimal licensing strategy for your individual career goals.
