Step 1: DataFlow Verification (Primary Source Verification – PSV)
DataFlow Primary Source Verification (PSV) is a mandatory first step for healthcare professionals applying for medical licensing in GCC countries.
During this process, your credentials are verified directly with the original issuing authorities, including:
• Educational qualifications
• Professional registration / license
• Employment and experience certificates
Successful completion of DataFlow verification is required before proceeding to authority registration and the Prometric examination. Ensuring accurate documentation at this stage helps avoid delays in the licensing process.
Step 2: Authority Registration (Country-Specific Licensing Body)

Once DataFlow verification is successfully completed, healthcare professionals must register with the relevant regulatory authority in their target country:
Saudi Arabia: Saudi Commission for Health Specialties (SCFHS – Mumaris+)
United Arab Emirates: Dubai Health Authority (DHA License)
Qatar: Qatar Council for Healthcare Practitioners (QCHP Registration)
Bahrain: National Health Regulatory Authority (NHRA)
Oman: Oman Medical Specialty Board (OMSB)
Each authority carefully reviews eligibility and credentials before granting access to examinations or final licensure.
