Do I need to register a company as a foreign doctor who wants to work at a clinic in Dubai?

This is not legal.

Yes, no need to establish a company on the name of the doctor.

It is enough to get a job offer and contract directly with the hospital and the hospital will take the charge to make your residence visa.

As for now there is no such requirement. You may check with them again for the same.

Maybe they thought you want to establish your own clinic as a foreign doctor.

But since you just want to work in a clinic, then yes, the clinic is adhered to provide your visa and you have to obtain a "Licensing of a Doctor" from MOHAP.

For further inquiries please contact us via email or phone.

Dear Questioner,

Yes the clinic must be registered as a company and have license to carry out the activities.

You will be employed by the company and will be provided with work permit and employment contract.

Please contact us on the phone to discuss this matter in details.

Hi.

In order to work in a clinic or hospital in the UAE you will not appear for an exam in order to get license to work in the UAE.

Once you have the license you can apply in all the hospitals and clinics and they will provide you with the residence visa and employment contract.
