As a foreigner living in Dubai, will I have access to public healthcare? What is it like?

Answer this Question

We asked expats in Dubai if they have access to public healthcare in Dubai. And, if they do have access, what is it like. They wrote...

"As a foreigner living in Dubai, you will have access to public healthcare, but it is important to note that public healthcare services are primarily designed for UAE nationals. Expatriates are required to have private health insurance to cover their medical needs. Public healthcare in Dubai is known for its high-quality services and modern facilities, but it can be crowded and have long waiting times. Private healthcare is more accessible and offers a wider range of services for foreigners, but it can be expensive. It is essential to have comprehensive health insurance to ensure access to the best healthcare services in Dubai," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Dubai, the UAE.
