MOH Dataflow Process: Step-by-Step Verification Guide

The MOH Dataflow process is the first and foremost step if you plan to work as a healthcare professional in the UAE. In fact, Dataflow will play a major role in making sure that all your qualification, license, and experience documents are genuine before you appear for the MOH exam. As incomplete or incorrect information may lead to delays or rejection, understanding the correct MOH primary source verification procedure is quite vital.

This blog explains the MOH Dataflow step-by-step process so that you can smoothly complete your verification and move closer to acquiring an MOH license.

MOH Dataflow Process

The MOH Dataflow verification is designed to verify the authenticity of your personal, educational, professional, and licensing documents directly from the original issuing authorities, referred to as Primary Source Verification (PSV).

The purpose of PSV is clear-only qualified and appropriately certified professionals should be allowed to work in the UAE healthcare system-to ensure the principles of safety, accountability, and quality are maintained across both hospitals and clinics.



Step 1 – Create Dataflow Account

First and foremost, the creation of an account on the official website of Dataflow initiates the MOH Dataflow process.

Registration on the Dataflow Group Website

Please go to the Dataflow Group website to make a new applicant profile by using your email and password to create an account. Make sure the name you provide is identical to that on your passport, to prevent mismatches in the future.

Select MOH UAE as the Licensing Authority

During registration, select the option MOH UAE while choosing the licensing authority. This is because Dataflow reports are authority-specific. If you choose the wrong authority, then your verification may get delayed considerably.

Once your account is created, you will be directed to the application page where you can begin entering your details and uploading your documents.

Step 2 – Upload Documents

The most important part of the MOH Dataflow process is uploading the correct and complete set of documents. Incomplete documentation is one of the main reasons for delays in verification.

Documents of personal identification

  • Valid Passport (front page & back page)
  • Passport-size photograph
  • Educational Qualification Documents
  • Degree certificate: Diploma/Bachelor/Masters—depending on category
  • Transcripts/mark sheets from your institution

Professional Documents

  • Experience certificates from current and previous employers
  • Home-country professional license (nursing, medical, allied health, etc.)
  • Good Standing Certificate from the licensing authority

This must be recent, usually issued within the last 6 months.

Tips for Smooth Upload

  • Ensure documents are clear, scanned, and readable.
  • Names, dates, and details should be identical in all your documents.
  • Upload documents in the required formats – PDF/JPEG.
  • Avoid uploading poor quality or cropped images.

Step 3 – Pay Verification Fees

  • After uploading your documents, you will be asked to pay the Dataflow fees, which vary depending on your profession and the number of components that need verification.


    Category-Based Charges


    • Doctors: Higher fees because many components need to be checked, such as education, internship, license, and experience

    • Nurses & Midwives: moderately priced

    • All allied health professionals/technicians have lower to medium charges, depending on specialisation.

    • Additional Documents: Additional charges apply if you add more certificates or experience letters.

    Payment can be made directly on the platform using a debit/credit card. Upon payment, your application will enter the verification stage.

Step 4 – Document Verification

This is the core stage of the MOH primary source verification process. Dataflow will contact your universities, previous employers, licensing authorities, and other issuing bodies to validate the authenticity of every document you submitted.

  • PSV stands for Primary Source Verification.
  • PSV verifies any qualification or license you claim directly from the original source.

 

Dataflow will check:

  • Whether the institution actually issued the certificate
  • Whether the certificate is genuine and not altered
  • Whether your work experience is valid
  • Whether your license was active and without any disciplinary concerns

 

  • If your Good Standing Certificate is authentic

 

Checks Usually Performed include:

 

  • Legitimacy: Ensures that the institution is recognized and accredited
  • Accuracy: Verifies dates, names, license numbers, and credentials
  • Verification of Details: Cross-verifies that all information matches against your application details.

 

Possible Outcomes

 

Once verification is complete, Dataflow will assign a status such as the following:

 

  • Positive (Verification successful)
  • Negative (documents found invalid)
  • Unable to Verify (institution did not respond or insufficient information)

A positive report enables you to proceed to the next stage of MOH exam approval.



Step 5 – Track Application

Dataflow provides real-time tracking so you can monitor the progress of your verification.

  • How to Track
  • Login to your Dataflow account
  • Go to “Application Status”
  • View the progress of each document: in progress, verified, or pending

You will also get email updates anytime your status changes. MOH Dataflow verification normally takes 30–45 working days; however, this may be delayed if responses from the institutions are slow or when additional documents are requested.

Conclusion

Completing the MOH Dataflow process is the first and most vital step toward securing your MOH license and practising legally in the UAE healthcare sector. Knowing the step-by-step MOH Dataflow stages, right from account creation, document upload, fee payment, and verification from the primary source, will help you avoid delays and ensure a smooth processing of approval. Always verify all your documents, reply promptly to any Dataflow request for documents, and ensure everything is matched in your certificates. With a verified Dataflow report, you are closer to taking the MOH exam and building your career in the UAE’s healthcare system.
