Hi friends

My wife's passport was about to expire and she had to renew it in India. She has Bahraini residence permit valid until October 2017.
Now she has to travel to Bahrain to join me. Can she enter Bahrain with the visa in the old passport?
Need an answer urgently.
Thanks

Shyam.

Hi,

Yes you need to travel with both the passports and explain the same to the immigration officer. Just to be on the safer side do try calling Bahrain embassy in India : (Delhii) 26154153 - 26154154 to get this point verified.

Good luck
