Visa anxiety!

I'm a Science teacher in Lebanon who got a job offer a few days ago to join a school in Manama. Everything is fine so far the contracts were signed, my papers sent, etc.
On Wednesday the  school will proceed with the application for a "business visa" since it's the fastest visa and I need to be there within 2 weeks at most. I'm just thinking is it easy to get a visa to Bahrain or is it rather difficult as is the case for European countries? The possibilities are overwhelming me! :(

Keep calm teacher ;)

If things go well , it won't take long for you to be in Manama ;)

Business Visa should not take long, but since its a long weekend (Eid holidays) here, it MAY take some time, We really cannot say how long, lets hope for the best!

Good luck!
