If you want to understand the process yourself, our licensing guides by profession and authority cover every detail. This page is about the alternative: handing the work to specialists who do it every week. We manage DHA, DOH, MOHAP and SHA applications for doctors, nurses, pharmacists, dentists and allied health professionals — and because we are also a recruitment agency, we can line up your job at the same time.

What We Handle For You

  1. Eligibility assessmentWe confirm which authority and category you qualify for before you spend anything, and check your institution against the approved lists.
  2. Document preparationWe tell you exactly what is needed, in what format, with what attestation, so nothing bounces back.
  3. DataFlow Primary Source VerificationWe submit and manage your PSV, the step where most self-applicants lose weeks. See our DataFlow guide for what is involved.
  4. Prometric examWe book your slot and point you to the right preparation. Our Prometric study guide shows the format.
  5. Portal submissionWe lodge and track your application through Sheryan (or the relevant authority portal) to issuance.

Why Use a Licensing Service

The licensing process itself is free to read about — we publish all of it. What you are paying for is speed and certainty: avoiding the DataFlow rejections, name-mismatch delays, wrong-category applications, and exam missteps that turn a 3-month process into a 7-month one. And because we place candidates too, your licensing does not finish in a vacuum — it finishes with a job placement lined up.

Licensing + placement, one team
Unlike licensing-only firms, we run your application and your job search together. Many candidates are interviewing while DataFlow is still processing — so you start earning as soon as the license issues. Placement is always free for candidates.

What It Costs

Authority and DataFlow fees are set by the regulators and paid directly to them — our cost & fees breakdown itemises every official charge by profession and authority. Our service fee is quoted upfront based on your profession and the authority scope, with no surprises. Already licensed and moving Emirates? See license transfers instead — roughly half the time and cost.
