You can exit from causeway provided you have a visa for Saudi.

Its always recommended to enter Saudi through the airport once you have the Saudi Iqama. from my experience, you cannot enter Saudi on a visit Visa whilst your Bahraini visa is expired or cancelled.

Actually no.  I drive across the causeway every week and many times, during the relocation of business operations from Bahrain to Saudi, colleagues whose Bahrain work visa was cancelled, hitched a ride with me to go to Saudi.  Some had a work visa and some had a visit visa to Saudi.  No issues for either.


If the Saudi visit visa has been issued WITHOUT any link to your Bahrain residence i.e. it is not a GCC resident visa.......then you won't have any issues.

My visa was cancelled due to my employers cr was inactive. I have visited KSA through causeway. When I came back Bahrain authority gave me entry on visit visa. Now how I can renew my Bahrain work visa

If a visa was cancelled you cannot renew it. You will have to apply for a new one.

Hi Guys , i am in a little complex situation here , my company hired me in Oct 2024 but I actual visa on their name was done on 27th November 2024 however my employment was terminated on 5th dec 2024 due to some disagreement over the relocation to Saudi on low category visa. I sent them an email that I need the salary from 27th Oct to 5th Dec 2024 they requested me that I return the laptop and they will proceed further for my final settlement,  I returned my laptop and sent them an email for the final settlement however there was no response for 2 weeks , yesterday on 14th jan 2024 I came to Saudi for 1 interview and then from there to dubai for another interview my car is parked in saudi and I am in dubai , my return flight is tomorrow but today I received the message that my work visa has been terminated,  since my family is still in the bahrain wife and 3 kids how can I return to the bahrian now ? What happens if I take my car from saudi to bahrain in this case through causeway ?

The car is not the issue.  You are the issue as you dont have a visa to enter Bahrain.
