Tracking medical fitness report online in Dubai

DHA medical fitness test

Many expats from around the globe move to Dubai and other emirates of the UAE to become part of the thriving economy and embrace the opportunities it gives. High living standards, comfort and safety, numerous cultural and entertainment events hosted by the city, as well as a luxurious lifestyle prompt people from different countries to make Dubai their second home. For those considering business setup in Dubai, securing a residence visa, including passing the DHA medical fitness test, is a crucial step in the process.

To ensure the safety of its citizens and residents, the UAE takes all necessary measures to avoid the spread of diseases. This means that some diseases are completely prohibited in the country meaning that anyone found infected with any of these must leave the country immediately.

It's a normal procedure for every resident of the UAE to get a medical fitness test. It is a mandatory protocol to ensure all residents and aspiring residents are medically free from diseases prohibited in the UAE like HIV, Hepatitis B and Tuberculosis. 

So, this is one of the mandatory protocols to take prior to getting your UAE emirate ID and residence visa status. 

It’s important to note that the medical fitness test is not only for new residents in the UAE, it also applies to those residents who are renewing their visas. We may conclude that most people in the UAE take it every two to four years depending on their visa validity period. 

What is a DHA medical fitness application?

To take a medical fitness test in Dubai, you must make an application. You will need to register with any of the DHA approved medical fitness testing centers. Once you make an application, you will need to schedule an appointment with a medical center that has the most convenient location to you and for the time you choose. 

In short, a DHA medical fitness application is a registration for the Dubai medical fitness examination. Passing this medical examination successfully triggers the process of issuance of your emirate ID.

For the examination, you must timely arrive to the selected medical center with the required documents:

• Your previous emirate ID (if you have it)
