E-Visa extension of stay (Not extension of VISA but extension of stay)

Go to visa services on bahrain.bh and request extension.  Usually after 90 days, they don't extend further.  However, this may be relaxed due to Covid - just check.  If approved, you will know the fees and so on.  No need for any stamp on passport.

Hello,

So I did the steps you mentioned, plugged in my details. it provided an option for extending for 20 days (NOT E-VISA) but the stay. I clicked next, next ... next and then it automatically provided an extension and game me a PDF file with NPRA header with 20 days additional from initial stay expiry.

I am a bit confused though because I did not pay anything and it happened almost automatically within seconds. I send myself an email for the receipt and I got this on the email 'The visa has been extended successfully through an eGovernment Channel. Please save the below details for future reference. For further inquiries, please call the National Contact Center on 8000 8001.'

So does this mean the extension is done or it is still under processing? I know the wording is obvious but I am not convinced that it is successful. If it is successful, why no fees, and how come it is almost instantaneous with no approvals while all other people go to NPRA and pay fees?

Thanks,

This is a new service brought out during covid. Before that you had to go.  And secondly, they are extending without fees prior to Jan 2021.

ok thank you.

Hi, im having the same condition, after 21 January, should I extend my period of stay? my visa is valid till 4 March.
