In a letter dated 11/1/1446 AH, the Saudi Ministry of Foreign Affairs informed the Yemeni Embassy in Riyadh that the Saudi Commission for Health Specialties had approved the classification of Hadhramout University’s Pharmacy program as a “Pharmacist.” Practitioners can apply for professional classification through the commission’s electronic system (Mumaris Plus), attaching all necessary requirements, in accordance with the general regulations for professional classification and registration and its executive regulations.
The Yemeni Embassy in Riyadh had previously sent a memorandum (24/2/0001274) dated 14/5/2024, which included a letter from the Minister of Higher Education and Scientific Research expressing his desire to request the Saudi Commission for Health Specialties to include the HU Bachelor’s degree in the commission’s list of recognized qualifications.
This approval comes amid an increasing demand for this specialty, which has become one of the most important health specialties.
