Disability Certificate (SADAREM)

A disability certificate is an official document issued by a government medical board that certifies the type and percentage of a person's disability. It is needed to claim disability reservations in jobs and education, receive pension benefits, get a disability identity card (UDID), and access other welfare entitlements.

- Persons with physical, visual, hearing, speech, or intellectual disabilities who do not yet have a certificate - Families of children with disabilities who need a certificate for school admission or welfare schemes - Existing certificate holders whose certificate has expired and needs renewal - Persons who want to apply for the Unique Disability ID (UDID) card, which is a national ID for all disabilities
