Hi sir I have the same case I worked with my company 2 years then my contract got finish then I worked extra 6 months because he didn't wanted to let me go, I later on made legal resignation letter and left the company in December 2021 then he cancelled my visa in January 2022 right now I don't have a visa but am working  waiting for my new company to apply me a visa but my formal boss is telling me he will put me on runaway if my new company  don't   apply me a visa. What can I do

If your visa has been cancelled, he cannot file a runaway case on you.  The most he can do is file an overstay after termination case.  This is basically telling LMRA that an employee has not left the country after termination and covers the employer in case you are caught illegally working somewhere else.  So my advice is NOT to work as if he files this, LMRA WILL come for an inspection at your new work place - your new employer will be fined and you will be deported.

Thank you so much I'll stop working until my employer applies me a visa

@XTang    I am still on probation period and I have to go back my country for some purpose. My question is , "Will I be able to go any restrictions at airport "  do they ask any letter from my company, Without informing my company . I have my passport and CPR with me

@Karuna babu

There are no restrictions. Please note that they can put a case as absconding which can hinder your return to Bahrain to work for another employer as well.

I'm stuck in Bahrain, My work visa is valid. I don't have passport I have white passport and I have runaway case in LMRA. Can I go India? Is there any problem in airport while travelling?

Please help me.

White passport as in a passport given to government officials? It's better you clear the fine and then exit the country

You have overstayed for two years and worked illegally during that time.  All you can do is get a lawyer and try to negotiate the overstay fines down, leave and then try your luck at a visa...........not likely to be granted one.

Hi. Hope everyone is doing well.


I would like to get some information about the travel ban,immigration ban. In another GCC country if i have Runaway case in Bahrain.


Currently  im in india a month before.

And i got the job offer in qatar.

I have already got visa there. I have not inform about it to my employer.

My only concerned and worries is that.

If i  travel to qatar within 2-3 days.

Does it stop me from entering qatar . The runaway case has not been filled yet may be they will do after some days.


Does that means i will not be able to enter qatar. Or the Runaway case travel ban will be only in bahrain.


Hoping for a positive response.

Thanks and regards

I will be grateful and appreciated for any response

DIfferent countries.  No issue unless there is a criminal case.

Hi,

I am an employer (my company is in Bahrain) and I hired a staff locally from Bahrain 6 months back. He didnt worked well and finally I sent him termination on 7th October but since then he has not arranged new job and transfer visa, His mobility is on. He is intentionally not getting visa transfer and threatening. His last working day was 7th Nov. I have hold his last pay and asking to get visa transfer because I am sure if i pay he will blackmail more. What options I have to handle such guy?

Please note that i am operating my company remotely from saudi as i am running another here.

My suggestion would be to consult with a lawyer regarding this.

XTang

I don't see what the problem is.  You have given him notice and so you can proceed to cancel his visa.  Once visa is cancelled, intimate the same to LMRA.  Your headache will be over.
