Exit of Child without visa

Post new topic

Iamrosy.m

Hi!

My 2 years old son was born in Bahrain. He has all the documents like passport and birth certificate but he doesn’t have a visa ever since.

The reason for this is my husband and I got separated and he went back to my country and left me and my son in Bahrain.

I kept my son here with me  without visa because my company won’t issue visa to our dependents.

Now we want to leave Bahrain. How can I take my child out of Bahrain? Is passport enough document to show to the immigration officers?
Or will they be needing an “exit permit” of my child? If yes, how long does it usually take for them to release the exit permit?

Appreciate your response.

There is no exit permit.  But you will have to go to immigration and pay the fines on behalf of your child for overstaying before you can leave.  Newborns are allowed 6 months I think to get a passport & visa and after that time, they are treated same as people overstaying without a visa.

Birth certificate takes only two days better you take here otherwise in your country may be questionable after that you have to open a file in immigration then you can go

Wife can sponser her husband, ask the wife to speak her employer regarding this. Husband will have only 30 days grace to exit the country once the Visa is cancelled ( this can be extended at lmra)
