Primary Source Verification (PSV) through DataFlow is mandatory for almost every UAE healthcare licence. DataFlow contacts your university, medical council, and employers directly to confirm degrees, registrations, and experience letters — you cannot skip this step for DHA, DOH, or MOHAP.
Prepare these core documents: attested qualifications, internship or house-job certificate, experience letters on official letterhead, valid home-country professional licence, and Good Standing Certificate (typically not older than six months). Name spellings must match your passport exactly; date gaps trigger delays.
PSV usually takes four to eight weeks but can extend if institutions respond slowly. Errors lead to supplementary verification and extra fees. Read our full DataFlow PSV guide, download the relevant checklist, and review typical timelines and costs before submitting.
