Do we need to go for another medical tests after landing in Bahrain?

Post new topic

Hello All,

I have gone through medical tests in my home country and have received my work visa letter. I will be landing in Bahrain shortly. I was told by my company that since I am joining them on work visa and as i have cleared medical tests in my home country, I don't need to go for another medical tests when I land in Bahrain. Please let me know if this is true?

Also, I have hypertension and have my BP above 150. Will this create any issue if I have to go for another health check up after landing in Bahrain?

Thanks.

No it's not true.  You will have to do medical here in Bahrain when you arrive.

Well if it didn't create problem in GAMCA, it shouldn't create a problem for the Bahrain medical.
