Yes, international students who plan to study in Dubai (UAE) are required to undergo medical tests after their arrival as part of the student residence visa process.

Here’s what you should know:

- Mandatory Medical Examination: All international students applying for a student residence visa in Dubai must complete a medical fitness test at an authorized government health center after arriving in the UAE.
- Tests Included: The medical examination typically includes a blood test (for communicable diseases such as HIV, Hepatitis B, and Syphilis) and a chest X-ray (to screen for tuberculosis).
- Purpose: These tests are mandatory to ensure public health safety and are required before the residency visa can be stamped in your passport.
- Process: After you arrive, your university or college will guide you through the procedure, including scheduling your medical test at a designated medical fitness center.
- What if you fail the test? If you test positive for certain communicable diseases, you may not be granted a residency visa.

Tip: Make sure you carry your passport, visa entry permit, and university documents when going for your medical examination.
