The healthcare industry in the UAE is growing rapidly as the government aims to improve healthcare standards and establish Dubai as a regional medical tourism hub. All medical devices sold in the UAE must be registered with the Ministry of Health. The registration guidelines were developed to prevent unsafe devices while providing access to beneficial technologies, and were modeled after international standards from the EU and US. Registration requires an application including device details, manufacturing and quality certifications, clinical evidence, and post-market monitoring plans. The process aims to ensure medical devices meet safety and efficacy requirements before approval and sale in the UAE market.
