The first step in obtaining your NHRA license is gathering and authenticating the required documents. Ensure that all documents are correct and meet NHRA’s requirements to avoid delays.

Obtain Necessary Documents

• Educational Degrees: Official records of your academic qualifications, such as your degree or diploma.
• Transcripts: Copies of transcripts from institutions where you completed your education.
• Experience Certificates: Official work experience certificates that demonstrate your professional background.
• Proof of Professional License: A copy of your valid license or certification from your home country or the country where you’ve practiced previously.
• Passport Copies: A clear copy of your valid passport for identification purposes.

Most of these documents can be downloaded or requested from your educational institution or professional regulatory bodies. You can find further instructions on how to obtain the required documents on the NHRA website.

Authenticate Documents

• Educational and Experience Certificates: These need to be authenticated by your country’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs or a relevant Bahraini embassy.
• Other Documents: Ensure all other documents are official copies with appropriate stamps or seals to confirm their authenticity.

Proper authentication of documents is essential to avoid delays in the processing of your application.

Once your documents are ready, you can begin the application process through the NHRA’s online portal.

Create an Account

To get started, visit the NHRA website and create a user account. This account will be used to submit your application, track the status, and communicate with the NHRA.

Fill in the Application Form

• Personal Information: Name, contact details, and other personal identification information.
• Qualifications and Experience: Provide a thorough summary of your academic background and work experience.
• Supporting Documents: Attach all necessary documents that have been previously prepared and authenticated.

Ensure that all information provided is accurate and matches the supporting documents.

Pay the Application Fee

The NHRA charges an application fee that varies based on your professional category. The fee structure can be found on the NHRA website. Be sure to check the correct fee for your specific profession to ensure timely payment and processing.

Depending on your specialty and professional category, some healthcare professionals may be required to attend an on-site interview or demonstrate their clinical skills as part of the application process. This step allows the NHRA to assess your practical and theoretical knowledge, ensuring that your skills are aligned with Bahrain’s healthcare standards.

• Competency Testing: You may be asked to demonstrate certain clinical practices or undergo an interview that assesses your professional knowledge and competency.
• Specialty Requirements: Some healthcare professions, such as medical doctors or specialists, may have additional evaluation procedures to confirm expertise in specific fields.

Ensure that you are prepared for this stage by reviewing clinical practices relevant to your field and being ready for a comprehensive evaluation.

Once your application is submitted, including any interviews or assessments, the NHRA will review all of the information provided, ensuring it meets the standards set for healthcare professionals in Bahrain.

Application Review

The NHRA processes applications to verify that your qualifications, experience, and credentials are in line with Bahrain’s healthcare regulations. This process can take some time, depending on the volume of applications being processed.

License Issuance

If your application meets all the necessary requirements, you will receive approval for your NHRA license, which will allow you to legally work as a healthcare professional in Bahrain.

Common NHRA License Requirements: Key Documents

• Educational Certificates: Accredited degrees, diplomas, or certificates relevant to your profession.
• Professional License: Proof of active professional licensing from your home country or any other country where you’ve previously practiced.
• Experience Certificates: Detailed work experience certificates relevant to healthcare, showcasing your roles and responsibilities.
• Identification and Passport Copies: Clear copies of your identification documents and passport to verify your identity and citizenship.
• Certificate of Good Standing (CGS): A certificate from your medical council or regulatory body, verifying that you have maintained ethical and professional conduct throughout your career.
• Certificate of Language Proficiency: If required, provide proof of English language proficiency through recognized exams, such as IELTS or TOEFL.

The first step in obtaining your SCFHS license is to gather all the necessary documents. These documents serve as proof of your qualifications, experience, and identity. Here is a list of essential documents you will need to collect:

• Educational Credentials: Copies of your degrees and diplomas, including transcripts, from accredited institutions.
• Training Certificates: Documentation of any relevant training or courses that support your qualifications.
• Professional Qualifications: Any specialized certifications or additional qualifications that demonstrate your expertise in a specific field.
• Health License: A copy of your health professional license from your home country or any country where you have practiced previously.
• Work Experience Certificates: Detailed work experience certificates outlining your roles, responsibilities, and duration of employment in the healthcare sector.
• Active Passport: A copy of your valid passport, as this will be used for identification purposes throughout the licensing process.

Ensure that all documents are in the required format and translated into Arabic or English (if necessary) for submission.

The next step is the Primary Source Verification of your credentials through DataFlow. This is a critical process to ensure the authenticity of all documents submitted. The DataFlow verification will confirm that your educational qualifications, professional certifications, and work experience meet the SCFHS standards.

To complete this step, you must register and submit your documents for verification via DataFlow. This process typically involves:

• Verification of educational qualifications.
• Cross-checking professional certifications and work experience.
• Ensuring that all documents come from authorized and reputable sources.

Once the verification process is complete and all documents are confirmed authentic, you will receive confirmation from DataFlow. For more details about the DataFlow process and how to submit your documents, visit the official DataFlow website.

Once your credentials have been successfully verified, the next step is to register on the SCFHS portal, Mumaris. Here, you will need to create a personal account and submit your application for licensure. This application will require you to upload all the previously verified documents and provide details about your education, work experience, and professional certifications.

Key points to consider during this stage:

• Ensure that all documents are clear, up-to-date, and correctly formatted.
• Carefully complete your profile, as any inaccuracies can delay the processing of your application.
• Submit your application along with the required application fee, if applicable.

Once your application is successfully submitted, the SCFHS will review your documents and ensure that everything meets the requirements for the next step.

After your registration and application are successfully processed, you can schedule your licensing exam with Prometric, an internationally recognized testing organization. The SCFHS licensing exam tests your theoretical knowledge and practical proficiency, and it is an essential part of the licensing process.

Steps for scheduling your exam:

• Choose a convenient location for your exam, as Prometric offers testing centers in various locations worldwide.
• Select the available exam date and time that works best for you.
• Pay the exam fee as required by Prometric.
• Receive confirmation of your exam schedule.

Ensure that you have received confirmation and are well-prepared before your exam date.

The licensing exam evaluates both theoretical knowledge and practical skills, so preparation is key to success. Make sure you dedicate enough time to review your study materials and familiarize yourself with the exam format.

Here are some tips for effective exam preparation:

• Study Materials: Use official SCFHS guidelines, textbooks, and online resources related to your field of expertise.
• Practice: Take practice exams if available to get familiar with the format and types of questions.
• Stay Calm and Focused: The exam may cover a wide range of topics, so pace yourself, manage your time wisely, and remain calm throughout the process.

On the day of the exam, arrive early at your selected testing center, ensuring you bring all the necessary identification documents, such as your passport and any required verification receipts.

Once you’ve completed the licensing exam, the next step is to wait for your exam results. The SCFHS typically provides exam results within a few weeks. If you pass the exam successfully, you can then proceed to apply for your professional license.

Here’s what to do after receiving your results:

• If You Pass: Apply for your professional license by submitting the necessary documents and paying any required licensing fees. After approval, you will receive your SCFHS license, allowing you to practice as a licensed healthcare professional in Saudi Arabia.
• If You Don’t Pass: If you don’t pass the exam, don’t be discouraged. You can apply for a retest. Take time to review your weak areas and prepare again to improve your chances of success in the next attempt.
