My friend wants to visit Bahrain with his family, he is currently on a Saudi Iqama and profession is Supply Chain Manager (Pakistan citizen). The family (Pakistan citizen) is visiting Saudi on a tourist visa.

Can the family get visa on arrival in Bahrain?

Thanks

Theoretically yes. Bahrain added an option for people holding valid visit visas to KSA and UAE to get visa on arrival. This excludes Hajj and Umrah visas.

You can go and check this on the evisa.gov.bh site.

@XTang Appreciate the quick reply as always.

So as long as the family has the KSA visit visa they don't need to apply for the e-visa?

Yes the person can visit through the causeway. Recently the parents having Saudi Iqama accompanied their children having (Saudi Visit Visa) through the causeway. They were not allowed through the Jeddah airport for some reason. But were able to come through the causeway.
