Hello,

Can anyone please clarify, LMRA has issued me work visa (I have the work visa PDF file, its like a eVisa). I just want to make sure people holding newly issued LMRA work visa are being allowed to travel to Bahrain?

I don't know whether this LMRA work visa is called an eVisa or not since gulf air website says about eVisa not work visa.

Kindly clarify.
Thank you

It's a work visa. You can travel to Bahrain if you can find a flight here.

Thank you XTang for the quick reply

- Entry is restricted to Bahraini citizens, residents, GCC citizens who do not need a visa, passengers eligible to obtain a visa on arrival, passengers with a valid eVisa, diplomats, military personnel, airline crew, or holders of official, service or UN passports

I can find a flight to Bahrain however on Gulfair website, it does not mention anything about work visa, I have copied and pasted above.

Thank you, brother. do you have an idea of how much fee I need to pay at the airport for any medical or anything else? I know I need to pay 40BD for the PCR testing, apart from this, is there anything else?
