What is MOH Licensing?
Take Your Expertise on a Tour that Marks the Beginning of Your Healthcare Career in the UAE
MOH or Ministry of Health license is an official permit given to medical professionals who wish to work in Sharjah or other emirates of the UAE like Fujairah, Ajman, Umm Al Quwain, and Ras Al Khaimah. In addition to submitting the necessary documents, applicants should crack through the examination organized by the Ministry of Health and Prevention (UAE). The MOH licensing procedure begins with document submission and involves credential and data flow processes for verification.
Nursing/Allied health professionals who want to work in Sharjah and the Northern Emirates should have gained an Internationally recognized nursing or paramedical University with a Bachelor’s degree through a course duration of 3 years or more. You can also have a diploma of 18 months or more if applying for an assistant position. To register as an allied healthcare professional, you should have two years of post-qualification experience. You don’t require a post-qualification experience to register an MOH license for nurses.
As a general practitioner, you must have a BBS, MBChB, or equivalent qualification from a recognized School or College of Medicine. The applicant should also complete an internship program and have 2 years of clinical expertise post-qualification.
Specialist physicians should have completed MBBS or MBChB qualification from an acknowledged Medical School/College of Medicine in the UAE and have three years of post-qualification experience to fulfill qualifications under tier 3. You require no post-qualifications for tiers 1 & 2.
If you wish to practice an MOH license as a consultant physician, you should have an MBBS or MBChB from a recognized School/College of Medicine, with specialty qualification reflected in the Recognized Specialty Certificate. Tier 1 of the consultation certificate requires two years of post-qualification experience and Tier 2 demands five years of post-qualification experience.
