Hi

My girlfriend and I are moving to bahrain next year.

She is going to be applying and hopefully working as a school teacher so we know what packages are available there.

I, however, will have 2 options and this is where I need the advice.

First option is i can continue to work for my UK company but work from home. This company is not set up or registered in bahrain I just need my laptop and can work from anywhere in the world. What visa can I get with this option and is it allowed to continue to work for my UK company, from home with no work visa?

Second is apply for a job in bahrain hopefully get a decent paid job and work visa but ny job is in sales, I don't drive and would need at least 750/800 BD a month. How realistic is this for office or even telesales roles?

Aby advice would be appreciated

Thanks

Option 1: No issue but you won't get any visa with this option.

Option 2: Depends on your luck. The market is really bad at the moment and you will get a lot of competition at that level from locals who will be preferred over you.
