Sick Leave Certificate Dubai
Connect with a DHA-licensed doctor over video call. If your condition is straightforward, your sick leave certificate is issued the same session. Home visits are available as an add-on for cases needing in-person examination.
Sick Leave Certificate Dubai: Overview
A sick leave certificate in Dubai requires a genuine consultation and clinical assessment by a licensed doctor before it can be issued. A sick leave certificate Dubai residents can trust starts with a DHA-licensed doctor over video call for AED 149. If a sick leave certificate is needed and your condition can be properly assessed remotely, the certificate adds AED 200, bringing the total to AED 349. If your symptoms require an in-person examination, a home visit can be added for AED 150 extra.
A sick leave certificate Dubai employers accept can often be issued for straightforward cases, such as flu, common cold, migraine, or minor gastric issues, through a video consultation, and the doctor issues the sick leave certificate during the same call if appropriate. This is the fastest and most affordable route.
For more serious symptoms where the doctor needs to physically examine you, such as suspected infections requiring vitals, abdominal pain, or anything the doctor flags during the video call, a home visit is arranged as an add-on at AED 150 extra, and the doctor completes the assessment and issues the certificate in person.
This sick leave certificate Dubai service is commonly used by employees who need documentation for their employer, students who need a certificate for their school or university, and anyone who needs official proof of illness for an absence, all through this simple sick leave certificate Dubai process.

Doctor assesses you over video
The doctor discusses your symptoms and conducts a clinical assessment over the call to determine if a certificate can be issued remotely.
Certificate issued, or home visit arranged
If your condition is clear, the certificate is issued the same session. If the doctor needs to examine you in person, a home visit is arranged for AED 150 extra.

Who Accepts a DrPlus Sick Leave Certificate Dubai
DrPlus sick leave certificates are DHA-compliant and widely recognised across Dubai and the wider UAE.
A sick leave certificate is issued only following a genuine clinical assessment, in line with UAE health regulations. Many conditions can be properly assessed by video consultation, but if the doctor determines an in-person examination is needed, a home visit is arranged for AED 150 extra rather than issuing a certificate without a proper clinical basis. If a sick leave period exceeds 5 days, MOHAP requires the certificate to be attested online, and leave beyond one month requires review by a medical committee. DrPlus can advise on this attestation process during your consultation.
