We're not an agency. We're infrastructure.

The process

How we homologate your degree

Five sequential stages stand between you and your SCFHS Specialist license — here is exactly what happens.

01

Mumaris Plus Application

Create your SCFHS profile and submit credentials via the Mumaris Plus portal.

02

DataFlow Primary Source Verification

DataFlow contacts issuing institutions directly to authenticate all academic and professional documents.

03

SCFHS Credential Evaluation

SCFHS reviews your qualifications and assigns your Specialist classification level.

04

Prometric Licensing Exam

Sit the specialty exam at a Prometric centre — or apply for exemption if you qualify.

05

Professional Registration

Final SCFHS registration completed in-country using your valid Iqama — licence issued.

06

Job Placement & Onboarding

Access Bookahospi's hospital network and secure your tax-free package with housing and flights.

Requirements

SCFHS mandates these five core requirements for Specialist classification — no exceptions.

1
Postgraduate specialty qualification (Fellowship, Board, Master's, or equivalent) explicitly indicating specialty, training duration, and dates.
2
Minimum 24 months of accredited specialty training after your medical degree (MBBS or equivalent).
3
At least 2 years of post-specialty clinical experience, evidenced by employer letters; surgical specialties also require a stamped logbook.
4
Valid professional license and Good Standing Certificate from your most recent country of practice.
5
DataFlow Primary Source Verification (PSV) covering academic degrees, professional licences, and employment history.
6
Prometric licensing exam — waived only for qualifications from UK, Ireland, USA, Canada, France, Australia, or Saudi Arabia with fellowship-level certification.

There are additional legalization and validation costs (Dataflow, License) that vary per case. Our team informs you at each stage.

Prometric SCFHS Licensing Examination

Computer-based specialty exam administered by Prometric; waiver available for candidates from select countries with fellowship-level credentials.

Frequently asked questions

How much does SCFHS Specialist Doctor homologation cost in Saudi Arabia?+
Official SCFHS fees include Mumaris Plus registration, DataFlow PSV, and Prometric exam charges — typically ranging from $800 to $1,500 USD in government fees. Bookahospi bundles all management and preparation costs into one transparent package.
How long does SCFHS Specialist registration take?+
The full process takes 6–10 months when properly managed, covering DataFlow verification, credential evaluation, and the Prometric exam. Delays are most common due to incomplete documents — Bookahospi prevents this from day one.
What is the minimum experience required for SCFHS Specialist classification?+
SCFHS requires at least 24 months of accredited specialty training plus a minimum of 2 years of post-specialty clinical experience. Both must be documented with official employer letters.
Can I get an exemption from the Prometric exam?+
Yes — doctors with qualifications from the UK, Ireland, USA, Canada, France, Australia, or Saudi Arabia may qualify for a Prometric waiver. Fellowship-level certification combined with substantial post-qualification experience is typically required.
What is DataFlow and why is it mandatory?+
DataFlow is the SCFHS-approved Primary Source Verification provider that contacts your universities, licensing bodies, and employers to authenticate all credentials. Without a completed DataFlow PSV report, your SCFHS application cannot advance.
What documents do I need for SCFHS Specialist registration?+
Core documents include your postgraduate specialty certificate, MBBS degree, academic transcripts, employment letters confirming 2+ years experience, a valid professional licence, a Good Standing Certificate, and the DataFlow PSV report. Surgical specialists also need a stamped operative logbook.
Do I need to be in Saudi Arabia to start the SCFHS process?+
No — Mumaris Plus application, DataFlow verification, and Prometric exam can all be completed before relocating. The final Professional Registration step does require your Iqama (Saudi residence permit) and is completed after arrival.
What salary can a Specialist Doctor expect in Saudi Arabia?+
Specialist Doctors in Saudi Arabia typically earn between SAR 20,000–45,000/month ($5,300–$12,000 USD) tax-free, depending on specialty and hospital. Packages commonly include free housing, annual flights, and medical insurance.
Is the Good Standing Certificate different from my medical licence?+
Yes — a Good Standing Certificate is a separate document issued by your licensing authority confirming no disciplinary actions against you. It must be current and is required in addition to your valid professional licence.
What happens if my professional licence has expired?+
You must submit both the expired licence and the renewed version to SCFHS to demonstrate continuous registration. Bookahospi reviews your licence status upfront to avoid rejection.
Does Bookahospi help with the Prometric exam preparation?+
Yes — Bookahospi provides specialty-specific Prometric preparation materials and mock exams as part of the service. We also assess your eligibility for exam exemption before you register.
How does Bookahospi differ from applying directly to SCFHS?+
Bookahospi manages every step — DataFlow coordination, Mumaris Plus submission, Prometric prep, and job placement — through direct institutional connections. You get a faster process, zero paperwork stress, and immediate access to tax-free hospital roles.
Are there additional costs during the homologation process?+
Yes, there are generally additional costs related to the legalization and validation of documentation (Dataflow, License). The amount is not fixed as it depends on the type of documents and the specific requirements of each case. Our team will review your documentation and inform you at each stage of the corresponding cost. Applies to all professions except medical specialist.
