Info on how to get a license in UAE
To practice chiropractic in the UAE, obtain a recognized qualification in your country, secure a Ministry of Health (MOH) license through the TCAM exam, and gain municipal permission for your chosen emirate (DHA in Dubai and DOH in Abu Dhabi). Prepare documents like degree certificates, internship records, and CPR/First Aid certificates. After attestation, upload certificates for Dataflow verification, ensuring experience certificates are under six months old. Chiropractic licensing entails completing a recognized degree, obtaining a valid license, registering with a regulatory body, attesting credentials, passing exams, and fulfilling clinical requirements, along with ongoing education. Upon application acceptance, select exam dates for physician assessment. Qualification is typically equivalent to specific degrees, requiring practical experience post-internship. The TCAM exam encompasses written and interview segments evaluating complementary medicine knowledge. Successful candidates receive an evaluation certificate for lifelong TCAM practice, contingent on continuous practice and adequate CME credits. The exam occurs approximately every month in Dubai and quarterly in Abu Dhabi.
