Dubai: If you would like to register as an organ donor in the UAE, the country’s laws and processes make it easy for citizens and residents to pledge their intention.
In the UAE, Federal Decree Law No. 5 of 2016 on Regulation of Human Organs and Tissue Transplantation regulates organ transplant operations as well as the process of donating organs and tissues, and the conditions that need to be made for a live or deceased person to donate organs and tissues.
The country also has a National Programme for Organ Transplantation, led by the Ministry of Health and Prevention (MOHAP) which facilitates the process. Under the programme, MOHAP has built a national donors’ registry, with the information linked to a person’s Emirates ID. Anyone in the UAE regardless of nationality can become a donor or recipient of an organ during a transplant surgery.
