The known GP lines add to AED 4,896.75 before the exam. For nurses, they add to AED 2,481.75 before the exam. Both sums include DataFlow with VAT, evaluation, application and the private-facility licence. Extra documents and issuer charges cost more. Keep visa costs in a separate budget.
Your university or past employer may charge to release a check. DataFlow shows the charge in your file. Budget for foreign-degree recognition only if you need it; read whole-route costs.
MOHAP’s general licence page says private and semi-government facilities pay the application fee. Its DHA/DOH transfer page says government and semi-government facilities pay it. Ask your employer which rule applies and who pays.
Follow your evaluation decision
Apply for evaluation and pay first. The officer then picks documents for DataFlow to check and sets your exam. Read licence steps before you book.
If MOHAP sets a Prometric exam, use the Schedule link on its EMOH programme page. Choose an available seat at a centre that runs this exam. For India, use that programme’s centre locator.
We did not find an official lifetime for MOHAP exam approval or steps to renew an expired ID. Ask MOHAP if your approval has expired. Use Prometric’s support for booking, payment or account problems. The published steps give no general rule on booking before DataFlow finishes its report.
Check terms before changing a date
Prometric counts cancelled and missed appointments within MOHAP’s limit of 3 scheduling attempts. Check the refund and date-change terms before you cancel. The programme page gives no change deadline or fee. Read your booking notice. Choose a date you plan to keep.
Prepare for the exam day
- Bring an original, unexpired government photo ID with a signature. Check the exact ID rule in your booking notice.
- Staff check your ID, pockets and glasses. They also use a metal detector wand.
- Keep unapproved electronics, wearables, notes, books, food and drinks outside the exam room.
- Try Prometric’s tutorial before the exam. Ask about breaks at check-in.
- Practise doses and rates by hand. We did not find a confirmed MOHAP onscreen-calculator rule.
MOHAP’s rules take priority over Prometric’s general rules. Read your booking notice for the centre, time and instructions.
