Sheryan — the DHA licensing portal, explained.

Sheryan is the DHA's end-to-end e-licensing portal for healthcare facilities and professionals in Dubai. It manages new facility licences, renewals, scope of services amendments, practitioner registration, malpractice insurance, controlled drug licences and the entire DHA inspection workflow. If anything on Sheryan is out of date or mis-filed, the clinic's facility licence is at risk — and that risk is personal to the medical director.

What clinics must actually do for Sheryan: Facility licence lifecycle; Practitioner licensing; Scope of services amendments; Inspection workflow & CAPs; Controlled drugs & licence sub-modules.

Common Sheryan gaps inspectors find at Dubai clinics — Practitioner licence lapsed but the clinician is still seeing patients — single biggest cause of facility suspension. Scope of services on Sheryan does not match the services actually being delivered — a finding flagged automatically by NABIDH claim data.
