DHA Licensing for Filipino Healthcare Professionals in Dubai
All healthcare professionals in Dubai require a DHA licence. The process involves DataFlow verification of Philippine qualifications, the DHA licensing examination or competency assessment, and for some roles an English language assessment. The DHA licence covers only Dubai Emirate and does not transfer to Abu Dhabi or the other Emirates. We present candidates with active DataFlow status and advise on current DHA examination requirements for each role category.
