The UAE Government is calling on all doctors in the country to apply for the Golden Visa.

It's in recognition of their efforts to preserve the health and safety of the community.

Doctors licensed by the health regulatory bodies in the UAE can apply for the Golden Visa between July 2021 and September 2022.

The long-term 10-year residency will also be granted to their families.

Dubai-licensed doctors can apply through the website smart.gdrfad.gov.ae while others have to submit their applications through smartservices.ica.gov.ae.

Moreover, seven offices, affiliated with the Federal Authority for Identity and Citizenship (ICA), will be established across the Emirates for doctors who wish to apply for the visa in person.

The applications will be reviewed by the concerned government departments.
