Do I Need A Visa To Visit Bahrain As A Tourist?

Yes, you must have a visa to visit Bahrain as a tourist, unless you are a citizen of a Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) country, such as Kuwait, Oman, Saudi Arabia, or the United Arab Emirates. For most other nationalities, obtaining a visa is a straightforward process with several options available.

You can get a visa in one of three ways:

  • Online (e-Visa): This is the most common method. Visitors from over 200 eligible countries can apply for an e-Visa in advance through the official government portal.
  • On Arrival: Many nationalities are eligible to receive a visa upon arriving at the airport in Bahrain.
  • From an Embassy: You can apply for a visa in advance from the nearest Bahraini embassy or consulate.

To apply for an e-Visa, you will typically need to provide scanned copies of your passport, a confirmed return ticket, hotel booking details, and a recent bank statement showing a balance of at least the equivalent of USD 1,000. Visas are available for different durations, from a standard two-week stay to longer-term multiple-entry visas.
