General Information
Anyone applying for an employment visa, family visa, or residence permit to any GCC country must undergo and pass the GAMCA medical test to receive a “FIT” status.
The GAMCA (Gulf Approved Medical Centres Association) medical test is a mandatory health screening for people applying for work, family, or residency visas for GCC countries such as Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, Kuwait, Oman, and Bahrain. It checks for infectious diseases, chronic illnesses, and overall health fitness to ensure candidates are fit to work abroad.
No — the system automatically assigns a GAMCA-approved medical center based on your chosen city and nationality. You can't choose or reserve one manually.
The test is required for:
🇸🇦 Saudi Arabia | 🇦🇪 UAE | 🇶🇦 Qatar | 🇰🇼 Kuwait | 🇴🇲 Oman | 🇧🇭 Bahrain
