Processing Timelines and Official Fees (2026)
How to Prevent "Discrepancy" or "Unable to Verify" Status
The most common cause of delayed DHA licensing is an unresponsive medical school registrar or HR department. DataFlow sends 3 email inquiries. If your university does not respond within 14 days, the status converts to "Unable to Verify", requiring expensive re-initiation fees. Notify your home institution in advance to expect DataFlow inquiries.

Frequently Asked DataFlow PSV Questions
Yes. The Dubai Health Authority allows candidates to receive a preliminary Sheryan Eligibility Letter to sit the Prometric exam while DataFlow verification is ongoing. However, your full professional license cannot be issued until a positive DataFlow report is verified.
Standard DataFlow processing takes 25 to 35 working days. The optional Express / TrueProfile service accelerates completion to approximately 14 working days for an additional fee.
A discrepancy status occurs when an issuing institution (medical university or hospital) claims a submitted document was not issued by them, or fails to respond within 3 attempts. This freezes your DHA credentialing until formal appeals are lodged.
The Certificate of Good Standing from your state or national medical council must be issued within the last 6 months at the time of DataFlow submission.
