Hello,

I’ll be coming for a 6 month stay in Bahrain and will be working in an office. What is acceptable wear for women in the workplace?

Thanks for any insights!

Kind regards
Sue

I saw some posts on the forum about this - search.

But generally, Bahrain is pretty relaxed. Outside of Government or semi-government entities, western office attire is ok. During Ramadan however, try to keep legs and arms covered.
