Short answer: The organiser says candidates receive an electronic statement of score and ranking within ten working days of the exam, and the schedule lists a result date about four days after each sitting. A result is valid for 24 months from submission to the authorities. A PDF transcript is accepted by all three health authorities.

When do EMREE results come out?

The organiser’s processing of results page says an electronic statement of score and ranking is issued within ten working days of the exam. The sittings table on the home page lists a result date about four days after each exam. Treat the listed date as a target and ten working days as the outer limit. Meddex is independent and is not connected to the EMREE organiser, UAE University or the National Institute of Health Specialities.

Key facts and where they come from

From the organiser’s portal, read 15 October 2026.

  • An electronic statement of score and ranking within ten working days of the exam. Source: processing of results page.
  • The schedule lists a result date about four days after each sitting. Source: home page.
  • Results can be sent to the authorities the candidate chooses. Source: processing of results page.
  • Valid for 24 months from the date of submission to the authorities; the home page says a maximum of two years. Source: processing of results page and home page.
  • A transcript PDF from the site is accepted by all three health authorities, and no printed transcript is issued. Source: FAQs.
  • After each sitting, item statistics are run and poorly performing questions are removed before the final result is recalculated. Source: FAQs.
  • Appeals are made through an online appeal form of the National Institute for Health Specialities. Source: exam appeal page.

What is in the score and ranking statement?

The organiser says a statement of score and ranking. The pages we read do not describe the layout, whether discipline scores are shown or how ranking is defined, so we do not describe it. The FAQ says discipline percentages cannot be averaged to the total, which suggests discipline figures may appear, but that is our inference. Save the statement as soon as it arrives and note the cycle and the date.

How long is an EMREE result valid?

The processing page says 24 months from the date of submission to the authorities, and the home page says a maximum of two years. The first wording is more exact, since the clock starts at submission, not at the exam. If you may apply in a later cycle, check each programme’s rule on how old a result may be. Read how EMREE scores are used for the questions to ask.

How does the result reach the authorities?

Through the transcript. The FAQ says the PDF transcript from the site is accepted by all three health authorities and that no printed copy is issued, and the processing page says results can be sent to the authorities you choose. Because every attempt goes on the transcript with its score, read EMREE retake rules before you enrol again.

Can you appeal a result?

The organiser’s appeal page describes an online appeal form handled by the National Institute for Health Specialities. We have not recorded the deadline or the fee, if any, and we do not quote fees. Read the page before you decide, and keep your timeline in view: an appeal does not stop programme deadlines.

What should you do in the week the result arrives?

Have a short routine ready, so you act in an orderly way whatever the news.

  1. Save the statement and the transcript, and note the cycle and date.
  2. Check which authorities and programmes you want to send it to, and the date each needs it by.
  3. Send it to the chosen authorities through the organiser’s process, and keep the confirmation.
  4. If you did not pass, read the retake rules before you enrol again.
  5. Tell your referees, and update your timeline in the application and timeline guide.
