Good day guys,

Is there anyone here who booked with Gulf Air and traveled from DMS to Bahrain Airport via Limo service with their Family under a family visit visa?

Is it necessary to get Bahrain Visa for both Iqama and family visit visa holders since it is only a connecting flight? or is the family visit visa holder also eligible to acquire Bahrain Visa on arrival at Causeway Bahrain immigration?

Hope someone could help.

Hi, Yes, I travelled from Riyadh to Bahrain with my family by road via King Fahad Causeway. I am Iqama holder and my family was holding Saudi Multiple Entry visit visa and was granted Bahrain visa on the border (King Fahad Causeway) without any issues. For Saudi Iqama holders, Bahrain visit visa is free of charge and for Saudi Visit visa holders they charge the visa fees SR.50 for each passport.
