Sick Leave Certificate Dubai
Connect with a DHA-licensed doctor over video call for a genuine clinical assessment. Once the doctor reviews your condition, the sick leave certificate is issued. Home visits are available as an add-on for AED 150 extra for cases needing an 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. It is never issued on its own without a consultation. A sick leave certificate Dubai residents can trust starts with a DHA-licensed doctor over video call for AED 249. Once the doctor reviews your condition and confirms a certificate is appropriate, it is issued for AED 250 more, bringing the total to AED 499. If your symptoms require an in-person examination, a home visit is arranged for AED 150 extra, bringing the total to AED 649.
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 once the assessment is complete. 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 for 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, consultation first, certificate after.

Sick Leave Certificate Dubai: How It Works
Book your teleconsultation
WhatsApp or call DrPlus. Confirm your details and a DHA-licensed doctor calls you on video shortly after, usually within 30 minutes.
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 after review, or home visit arranged
Once the doctor has assessed you, the certificate is issued. If the doctor needs to examine you in person instead, a home visit is arranged for AED 150 extra.
Treatment where needed
If a prescription is required, this is issued during the consultation or home visit, so you have everything needed to recover and document your absence.
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, and only after the consultation is complete. 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.
