Hi All,

I'm gonna get my tourist visa in a week and i'll be moving to Bahrain in another 2 weeks. I'll be staying with my cousin's place and i'll be looking for a job.

Can someone tell me if it is okay to seek employement with tourist visa?

You can from what I know but it isn't wise to say you are moving to Bahrain when you enter...since these are not the usual procedures when people move here. It might seem as if you could be a potential overstayer if you do not find work on time.
