Hello Manoj and welcome on board Expat.com

Congratulation for your job offer. Hope that some members may shed some light soon enough. I think it's for two years and after that they renew your work visa until you are eligible for permanent visa.

Hope that members who have been through the same steps as you will be able to confirm you exactly what to expect.

Hi,
First of all congratulations!

I would suggest you to come to Bahrain alone, settle down and then get your family. When you are here you could go around check out the schools and near by areas and then decide on the place to stay, you colleagues could give you valuable info. and you must go through the below posts,
