The DOH Licence You'll Need

Every pharmacist working in Abu Dhabi must hold a DOH licence issued by the Department of Health (DOH). In short, you'll need a recognised BPharm or PharmD, active home-country registration, DataFlow Primary Source Verification, and a pass in the DOH Pearson VUE exam (unless you qualify for an exemption). Our step-by-step DOH pharmacist licensing guide walks through every requirement, fee, and timeline. The full process usually runs 2–4 months, and Health Bridge manages all of it for you.
