The Dirac equation is solved exactly under the condition of spin symmetry for a spin 1/2 particle in the field of Mie-type potential and a Coulomb-like tensor interaction via the Laplace transform approach (LTA). The Dirac bound state energy equation and the corresponding normalized wave functions are obtained in closed forms with any spin-orbit coupling term kappa. The effects of the tensor interaction and the potential parameters on the bound states are also studied. It is noticed that the tensor interaction removes degeneracy between two states in spin doublets. Some numerical results are given and a few special cases of interest are presented. We have demonstrated that in the nonrelativistic limit, the solutions of the Dirac system converges to that of the Schrodinger system. The nonrelativistic limits of the present solutions are compared with the ones obtained by findings of other methods. Our results are sufficiently accurate for practical purpose.
