Emirates ID & Medical Test – What You Should Know

The Emirates ID and medical test are two fundamental requirements for obtaining or renewing a UAE residence visa. The Emirates ID is a biometric identification card issued by the Federal Authority for Identity and Citizenship (ICP), while the medical test ensures you meet the UAE’s health standards.

All expatriates over the age of 18 must undergo a medical fitness test as part of the visa process. The test typically screens for infectious diseases like tuberculosis and HIV. This must be completed at an approved government health center and is a prerequisite for visa stamping.

Once the medical test is completed and cleared, applicants can proceed to apply for the Emirates ID. Biometric data such as fingerprints and a photograph are collected, and the ID is issued within a few days. This card is essential for accessing government services, banking, and telecom registration.
