Some UAE public health centres will stop offering medical fitness tests for residence visa applications starting June 3, authorities said.
The Emirates Health Services (EHC) recently confirmed the closure, stressing that the service will remain accessible in other centres.
Here are the four health centres that will no longer conduct medical fitness tests for visas:
