Look, no one can tell you that.  As I keep saying repeatedly, scar is NOT the issue.........it's what they will diagnose that scar as.


And you have no way of knowing that unless you actually go through with the medical.

Hi,Regarding your employment visa medical test, Prime Digital Solution often works with professionals dealing with international job placements and might be able to guide you better. However, from what I know, a mild scar that isn’t related to TB shouldn’t affect your medical fitness results.The UAE medical screening is primarily focused on contagious diseases like active TB, so if your scar is unrelated, it’s likely you’ll pass the test. Still, I’d recommend consulting with a local medical professional for a more accurate opinion.Best of luck!

Not really.  As I said, the real question is what the scar will be diagnosed as i.e. old TB or not.  They WILL do confirmatory tests like sputum to rule out active TB (which is good if you don't have it).  But even with a negative sputum, a new visa applicant is still at risk because if the scar is diagnosed as being from Old TB, they still won't pass.  There are many similar stories and discussions on these forums.

@XTang Hello Tang,


I have got job offer in Abu Dhabi, and planning to move by JAN'25 and planning to bring my wife on dependent visa by Mar'25.


We are recently married and I came to know that she has old TB scar due to infection 5 years back, now she is completely cured.


Will there be any issue to apply dependent visa and get medically fit.


I have gone through all the old post and could see for dependent visa is not a issue, But there is no recent thread related to it.


All your feedback is very much required whether I can take the job offer or not and stay in India.


Thanks mate!!

Dependent visa is not an issue.
