The UAE Government sends UAE nationals abroad for medical treatment if treatment is not available in the UAE.

UAE citizens who wish to travel abroad for seeking medical treatment for themselves or their family member, are advised to contact the UAE's  Ministry of Health and Prevention on which country and which medical facility to visit for the treatment.

After choosing or deciding upon the country, citizens could also contact the diplomatic mission of that country in the UAE for additional information on the legitimate and accredited institutes.

After reaching the destination country, UAE citizens are advised to keep in touch with the UAE mission there through Twajudi.
