If you are applying for a new UAE residence visa or renewing one in Ajman, the visa medical test is one of the main steps in the process. It is used to confirm that the applicant is medically fit for residency and is free from communicable and infectious diseases. In Ajman, the official EHS residency screening centres listed for this service are Mushairif Medical Examination Center for Residency and Al Nuaimiya Medical Examination Center for Residency.
This guide keeps the process simple: where to go, what to bring, how much it costs, how long results usually take and what happens during the appointment. Always check the official Emirates Health Services pages before you go, because timings and service rules can change.
Ajman visa medical test centres
Emirates Health Services lists two Ajman medical examination centres for residency visa screening:
- Mushairif Medical Examination Center for Residency
- Al Nuaimiya Medical Examination Center for Residency
Both are official EHS fitness test centres in Ajman. The EHS service page also confirms that Ajman residents can complete residency medical screening through these centres as part of the UAE residence visa process. Their working days differ, so you can pick whichever suits your schedule.
Mushairif Medical Examination Center for Residency
The Mushairif centre is listed by EHS as a fitness test centre in Ajman offering medical examination for residency, along with COVID-19 PCR services. EHS lists its telephone number as 067455900.
| Saturday | Closed |
| Sunday | 9am to 5pm |
| Monday to Thursday | 8am to 8pm |
| Friday | 7.30am to 11.30am |
Mushairif is the centre to use if you need a Sunday appointment. Check the live EHS facility page before travelling, especially around public holidays or Ramadan hours.
Al Nuaimiya Medical Examination Center for Residency
Al Nuaimiya is the second official EHS medical examination centre for residency in Ajman. EHS lists its telephone number as 067316870. It is open on Saturdays but closed on Sundays, so it is the better option if you can only visit at the weekend.
| Saturday to Thursday | 8am to 8pm |
| Friday | 8am to 12pm and 2.30pm to 8pm |
| Sunday | Closed |
Who needs the medical fitness test?
The test applies to adults applying for a UAE residence visa or renewing a residence visa. EHS states that the service is for residents aged 18 and above. For a renewal, Emirates ID is required. Companies with more than 10 workers may also need delegate cards for the process.
Documents to carry
According to EHS, applicants should be ready with:
- One passport-type photo
- Valid passport or valid Emirates ID
- Emirates ID for residence renewal
- Company delegate card, where required for larger company applications
If you are applying through a typing centre, PRO or employer, confirm whether they have already uploaded documents or booked the appointment before you visit the medical centre.
Ajman visa medical test fees
EHS lists the service fees by category. The centre adds a small printing fee on top.
| Category | Who it covers | Fee listed by EHS |
|---|---|---|
| Category A | Employees, companies and workers | AED 250 for the medical examination, plus the centre printing fee |
| Category B | Private drivers, nursery supervisors and domestic help including nannies and cleaners | AED 350 in total (AED 250 examination, AED 50 vaccination for new applications and AED 50 pregnancy test), plus the centre printing fee |
| Category C | Workers in beauty salons, barbershops, health resorts, gyms and health facilities | AED 300 in total (AED 250 examination and AED 50 vaccination for new applications), plus the centre printing fee |
These figures are useful for planning, but use the official EHS service page or your typing centre for the final amount before payment.
