Thanks for replying . Is it for dubai only 6 category or Do you know about other countries for my situation??

XTang

UAE is 6 categories only.  In the rest of the GCC, you cannot get a work visa.

Is Hepatitis B test only compulsory for Saudi or any other gulf countries? Let me know

XTang

Every GCC country except UAE as mentioned above.

AlicJon

XTang

Use Google if you have to ask that question.

XTang

Your question has already been answered.  Read the thread.  If not in 6 categories then yes.  Ask your sponsor to guide you.

Yep, the visa medical tests are done as per the guidelines.   If that was your question?

Wat about ofis boy?

XTang

Try to read what I have posted.

Office boy is fine unless you are working in a school or nursery in which case it will be an issue.  Only you can figure out what your situation is and refer back to what the government says - as posted above.

I know we're partly discussing this topic onto a different thread, but this link was very useful to me, it says:

"The emirate of Abu Dhabi screen foreign nationals to detect pulmonary tuberculosis by a chest x-ray; however, the emirate of Dubai does not."


So no xrays for new visas?

XTang

As far as I know, there IS an X-ray for new visas in all Emirates.

For example, when I got my first UAE visa back in 2010, I went through X-Ray in Dubai and then again for renewal in 2013.

abdulkaddir

There IS an X-ray for new visas in all Emirates. Then every time we renew it, should follow the same

Hello everyone

I just wanted to know if anybody who was denied a visa as a teacher in senior school due to hepatitis b?

XTang

I will let someone else answer.  I have already told you on another thread of the cases I know about.

User1948

There is a user who asked whether they can get visa in other GCC countries if you test positive for HBV. You can get work visa in Oman. I have HBV and i've been working here for 7 years now though you will need alot of support from your company.

Don't give people false hope.  What you have said is not proven by mainstream science.  Herbal remedies are good for health but will NOT remove a positive Hep B result which is what is being discussed.

Some guidance from a government funded "proper" medical site:

Special Herbal Cures
Among the many scams very common are Herbalist Doctors and Witch Doctors and Muti Doctors saying they have a special group of herbs that will cure Hepatitis B. The point we need to remember is all the herbs and products and diet that can help us look after our livers are available at our supermarkets and health food shops. We do not need anyone to tell us


As a warning to forum members, please be very wary on sending money or payments for supposed medical cures which have no basis in science.

XTang..
Do you know about Hep B rules on ADNOC?  is the rule implement on all UAE company ?
in 2015 I miss opportunity to get job on Takreer (ADNOC), I decide not to do medical test because there are HbsAg test on the medical list and I have HbsAg +. They will stamp me unfit and I will not get the working visa. It is make me down and very disappointed.
If the rules is implemented for all company in UAE, I will try to get opportunity job in UAE again

XTang

Its based on category and professions.  But individual companies are free to decide their own policy regarding this.

Hello  good morning  guys  Please  i wish to know  if someone  with hapatetis  b can get a job as a cleaner  without  any problem

XXX007

Hi Vipul
Need your whatsup number to ask some thing.
I am also Hep B, and applying for Mechanical Engineering jobs.

I know I am not falling under 6 categories, but just want to know are those centers properly communicated by their government that Other categories should not be tested ? because any fool person can apply test on our blood since they already get our blood.

Hello all,

I would like to know about the hepatitus B checkup for University professor. As per the rule it is not fall directly n to the six cateegories, but I afraid it will consider as a teacher. So there is a lot of uncertainty in to this matter. So request you  all to provide me some idea in this regard.

Mud007

As per law, nursery and kindergarten teachers may be tested for hepatitis. I don't think so for it will be same for higher grade teachers and professors.

Guest6892

Guest6892

Hello  everyone  please  i need reply is there anyone who is just from  medical  with hapatetis  b??
