DHA licence of expats won’t be cancelled on their exit

Healthcare professionals, once licensed in Dubai, will not be required to re-sit for exams if they want to return to the country in future. Their credentials will be saved in the upcoming Dubai Healthcare Professionals Registry and will be reactivated once they decide to come back to the UAE.

"Once a healthcare professional leaves the UAE, his/her details will be saved in the system in an inactive form. These details can be viewed by investors and employers as well," he said.

However, the professional should remain actively working or should keep updating their education (Continuous Professional Development).

"The licence will be renewed instead of being cancelled like it was being done earlier," he said.

The registry will provide details such as the date the licence was issued and what specialty the professional is licensed for.

The smart system also ensures transparency while organisations can also check if there are any conditions or restrictions relating to that licence.

The registry will include details about all medical professionals including doctors, nurses, paramedics, radiologists etc.

Professionals, who leave Dubai and do not continue their work, will not fall under this category. "This applies only to those professionals who either continue their medical education or medical practice abroad.
