How do you check your health insurance status?

The route depends on the emirate that issued your visa. This page takes no details from you. It sends you to the official service.

Dubai

Check with your insurer or the company named on your card. The Dubai Health Authority’s health insurance pages showed no public look-up by Emirates ID on 12 November 2026.

  1. Use your insurer’s app, website or call centre

    Your insurer, or the claims company named on your card, can show your cover, your network and your approval requests. Each one shows only its own policies.

    You need Your Emirates ID number or policy number.
