    The cost of a PCR test is quite reasonable in the emirate (AED 150). But there has been a sudden surge in demand for the tests in wake of the mandatory PCR tests for students announced by the Government for the academic year, 2022. Students are now required to enter the school premises only if they test negative. 

    The national emergency crisis and disaster management authority announced on August 23rd, that all students of age 12 and over are required to present a mandatory negative PCR report valid for 96 hours from the time of result to enter the school premises. 

    Frequent tests would ultimately take a financial toll on families. To make things easier for parents and general public alike, we have compiled a list of facilities offering free or cheap PCR tests across the city. 

    Here is a comprehensive list of testing facilities in the Emirate where you can get PCR tests without paying any fee.

    Eligibility Criterion for Free PCR Test

    Senior citizens and residents above 50 years of age and people suffering from severe illnesses and diseases can get tested for free at select screening locations around the city.

    All eligible individuals can book an appointment for a free PCR test by contacting Estijabah at 8001717.

    SEHA is also offering free testing services for all eligible UAE nationals and residents. However prior booking is required.

    Other Eligible Categories for Free COVID-19 test

    People who do not fall in the above-mentioned categories can book a free PCR test by making an appointment with SEHA via a dedicated mobile app.

    People who can get tested for free from SEHA include:

    • UAE citizens
    • Children of Emirati women
    • House helps in UAE nationals’ homes
    • People with chronic illness
    • Residents over 50 years of age
    • Pregnant women
    • People of determination

    The free testing service can be availed only once every four months. You can also get a free COVID-19 test at any MOHAP (Ministry of Health and Prevention) screening facility if you have symptoms and fall into the above-mentioned categories.

    Free PCR Tests for Federal Employees and Students

    All students studying in private or governmental educational institutes can get tested for free at any COVID-19 screening facility across Dubai.

    Students can get tested without any appointment from Saturday to Thursday (8 am to 8 pm) and Friday (10 am to 8 pm) at any screening center in the emirate.

    All federal government employees and semi-government workers can get tested for free at any COVID-19 screening facility in the country. All eligible individuals are required to bring a valid workplace ID and Emirates ID card to avail of the free testing service.

    Also, all employees have to make a prior appointment for a free test. Results will reflect on the Al-Hosn app within 24 hours from the collection time.
