Hi, Vinho, The UAE used to be very strict with Hepatitis and I have had experience where folks were deported even though they recovered years ago. They have now relaxed the rule. Your professional should not be among those that require Hepatitis testing. Please refer to the article: http://www.thenational.ae/news/uae-news/health/uae-hepatitis-screening-rules-have-been-relaxed Good luck.
