UAE to Launch Genetic Testing in Premarital Screening Nationwide

Mandatory genetic testing for couples planning to marry will soon extend across the UAE, marking a significant step in the country’s healthcare policies aimed at minimizing the risk of hereditary diseases. This new measure, set to be introduced by January 2025, mandates all Emirati couples to undergo genetic testing as part of their premarital health screenings. Officials say this initiative will help future parents identify genetic disorders or mutations that could pose health risks for their children.
