This research aimed to encounter rapid diagnostic test (RDTs) efficacy to distinguish malariawithin patients with positive history to fever and/or travelling to endemic municipality. All overa year, blood samples were amassed from patients visited different laboratories. Both thin, thickblood films stained with Geimsa and rapid tests were used to diagnose malaria. Malaria was detectedby microscopy and RDTs (0.5%, & 0.9%, respectively) of patients. RDTs yielded 100%sensitivity and 98.5% specificity. Samples detected by microscopy were also detected by RDTs.All diagnosed malaria patients had history of travelling to Sudan or Yemen. RDTs proved confirmatorytool to catch malaria suspected cases with fever history. Travelers from Sudan andYemen should be checked for malaria.
