Hello

Good Morning !
So I have got a job in Bahrain , and I would be moving soon !
Thing is , my husband was with me , but I can't sponsor him in Bahrain !

Going through some classifieds , I found out that they are selling visas for 1000 BD for 2 years !
Are these visas valid ? Renewable ? What if the company shuts down etc !
What are the complications if my husband opts for it ?

Can someone guide me please ?

Hello there. Who is selling these visas? You need to be careful in case there is something dodgy going on.

I am going to have to second what Brightonguy has said - be careful with advertisements like these. Just doesn't sound right...

There were a few questions about wives sponsoring their husbands on here recently, maybe try a quick search to see what they did...

Selling of visa's is highly illegal. Your husband will be sponsored by these people, then after they take your money they will cancel the visa and say he has not worked well for them etc - your husband will then be sent home and not be allowed back in to Bahrain

DO NOT BUY VISA
