In September 2020, the UAE government approved a decision to establish a National Centre to Regulate Human Organs and Tissues Transplantation. The centre aims to unify the national efforts in the field of transplantation of human organs and tissues, regulate and coordinate organ transplant surgeries across the country. The centre also seeks to:

• implement a prevention and treatment programme for organ failure and registration of cases
• develop procedures for regulating transplantation of human organs and tissues
• organise the preservation and distribution of organs
• coordinate with health authorities to train and develop qualifications for practitioners in the field
• encourage the practice of organ and tissue transplantation.

Ministry of Health and Prevention will operate the National Centre to Regulate Human Organs and Tissues Transplantation.
