Why not reach out to the bank for clarification?

You didn't give any details.

Are you a british citizen? are you tax resident in the UK?

How are you freelancing? via online platforms or actually via contract with a company in the UK?

No one can answer you on your generic question without any details.

I am Indian and have been freelancing for three years from India. Last month moved to Bahrain

I got my salary converted into INR in my Indian account from Transferwise, but now wise troubling me to send INR for 3 to 4 months. So, my manager suggested that I open a GBP account at HSBC Bahrain. My concern is, do I have to pay any taxes? Your suggestion would be appreciated.

There is no tax liability in Bahrain. However, there might be other issues associated with source of funds as you are not legally employed in Bahrain.
