Entering the UAE in case of detecting old TB scars
Hi!
Good day!
My daughter is planning to come and work in Dubai soon. My question is she had tuberculosis when she was 9 years old and she was on treatment for 6 mons that time and was treated.
My question is, does it leave a lung scar? I am scared that it will show up in the chest X-ray during the medical exam.
Will the UAE immigration issue a working/ residence visa for people with an old scar?
Thanks,
Ms A.
Dear A.,
Please make a medically-fit certificate and attest it from the notary public, home country embassy, UAE embassy in the home country, MOFA and send it to the UAE and submit the certificate in Ministry of Health.
If the Ministry of Health finds it authentic, you get NOC and submit the same to GDRFA in order to get a visa.
Once old scars show up in an x-ray, then it will create a problem in getting a visa.
For any further help in the above-mentioned procedure, please feel free to Whatsapp/ call.
Regards,
Abdul Wahied
