Hi! I'm from Manila, Philippines and I'm planning to move to Bahrain this year. I have relatives residing at Manama. I need a sponsored Visa for Bahrain. The reason why I'm moving to Bahrain to is gain employment. Is it practical to have a sponsored visa through travel agency or hotels?

Hi Aurora,

Travel agencies and hotels will be able to get you tourism visa of course. They will also sponsor you.
If you are looking for a work visa, then it's another story.

Here is the site for the visit visas : http://www.evisa.gov.bh/
Here is the one for work visas : http://portal.lmra.bh/english/

Wish you luck !

Friendly yours

Olivier

sponsored visa is everywhere you just have to pay them. Work visa will be given by an employer. You can come here by sponsored visa then look for a job and your employer inshalla will give you work visa.
