Removing a UAE ban after recovery from TB medical condition
I have visa ban in the UAE due to TB during my medical fitness test.
So, I Left the UAE one year before and now after treatment, I'm ok with the problem but I'm having TB scars.
Is it possible to lift my ban and apply for a new visa?
If possible, please guide me.
In order to be able to obtain a work/residence permit, foreign nationals need to be free of all forms of communicable diseases such as HIV and TB.
A new Cabinet Resolution was passed in 2016. As per this resolution, all resident expatriates while renewing their residence visas have to undergo TB screening.
Those found with scars or active TB or found having drug-resistant TB will be issued a conditional fitness certificate and be issued residence visa for one year.
They will then have to undergo treatment in the UAE. But once you have a ban the removal process is difficult.
