Fifteen countries/regions — Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, China, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam, the Philippines, Indonesia, India, Sri Lanka, UAE and Turkey — with addresses, fee ranges, booking difficulty and links, plus Asia-specific notes on HIV reports, hepatitis B and drinking water.
Verified: 13 October 2026. Compiled from facility websites, the World Travel Dialysis Map (WTDM), BookDialysis and Diaverum d.HOLIDAY. Acceptance, fees and required documents change at any time — always contact the facility directly before travel. This site has no affiliation with any facility and receives no referral fees.

This is the Asia-wide extension of Overseas Travel Dialysis: Japan, Korea, Taiwan, China, US and Canada, covering 15 countries/regions across East, Southeast, South Asia and the Middle East. Detailed Japan/Korea/Taiwan/China lists are in the earlier article; here only highlights and new entries are shown.
How to use this list
Check the Booking difficulty column: ★ instant online booking; ★★ email, 1–2 weeks; ★★★ via international medical center, 4+ weeks
Prepare the English summary, hepatitis B/C and HIV reports from the travel checklist (most Asian countries require an HIV report, stricter than Europe/US)
Southeast and South Asian centers commonly offer HDF; fees are typically less than half of Japan's
The Middle East (UAE, Turkey) has many modern centers — a good option for Europe–Asia transit travelers

HIV report: most facilities in Japan, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand and the UAE require an HIV test from the last 1–3 months — have it drawn with your routine labs before departure.
Hepatitis B carriers: some Southeast Asian centers do not accept HBsAg-positive patients or need to arrange an isolated machine — state this in your very first message.
Water and food: tap water and ice in Southeast and South Asia are not safe to drink; high-potassium local fruits (mango, durian, coconut water, papaya) deserve extra restraint.
Checkpoints when choosing
Infection control (HBV/HCV zoning, single-use consumables), HDF availability, English contact, distance to an ER, real reviews from the past year, English receipts.

High phosphate is a silent killer for dialysis patients, driving vascular calcification and bone disease over time. This article compares the phosphate binders available in Taiwan (calcium salts, Phoslo, Fosrenol, Renvela, Nephoxil and others) and explains how high parathyroid hormone is managed — including when surgery is recommended.
Dialysis sustains life, but it also brings a series of problems that need long-term management — from low blood pressure and cramps during treatment to cardiovascular disease, bone disorders, anemia and infection over the years. Understanding them is the first step to preventing them with your care team.
Both types of dialysis effectively remove toxins and fluid, but the methods, lifestyles and risks differ sharply. This article compares them point by point — from the underlying science to daily life — to help you and your care team choose.
