The process involves three phases: obtaining a commercial license from DED (Dubai Economic Development) or SEDD (Sharjah Economic Development Department), securing technical permits from your local health authority (DHA, DOH, SHA, or MOHAP), and completing EDE (Emirates Drug Establishment) registration for medical equipment. Amber manages every step, from engineering layouts to Dataflow staff vetting.

Transactions require professional valuation, legal due diligence, and a formal transfer of health authority licenses. Amber specializes in healthcare business entry and exit strategies to ensure compliant ownership transitions.

Licenses are jurisdiction-based. You must first obtain a commercial permit from DED (Dubai) or SEDD (Sharjah). Clinical licenses are then issued by the DHA (Dubai), DOH (Abu Dhabi), SHA (Sharjah), or MOHAP (Northern Emirates). We manage the entire multi-authority application for you.

Healthcare professionals must complete mandatory Dataflow verification, pass the Prometric exam, and obtain an eligibility letter. Specialists may also require EDE coordination for clinical privileges. Amber handles the complete documentation and registration process across all UAE medical specialties.

Yes, licenses can be transferred between authorities (e.g., DOH to DHA) via a data transfer process if you meet the Unified Healthcare PQR. We simplify this transition for a seamless career move.
