Dear, I came to Bahrain a month ago on visit Visa. Now got job. Company yet to apply for work visa. I have submitted my passport to the company. But the question is my name in the passport given name section written as "MUHAMMED MUSTHAFA" and in Surname section its "BLANK".

Will my passport got accepted during the work visa apply process ?

Please advice.

Yes, As you have 2 words in your name "MUHAMMED" & "MUSTHAFA" , it will be accepted. If there is only one word for eg - "MUHAMMED" then it will not be accepted. It does not matter whether you have the two words in the given name or surname.

You Must need to change Passport, because i face 8 to 10 cases of my workers like you, LMRA/Immigration Not give you Work visa on single Name. they sent back visa with objection..

soo don't try to apply visa again and again on single name, go pakistan embasy or change passport as soon as possible.

Dear all,

Please note that if anyone has 2 words or more in the name for eg - "Super", "Man". It does not matter whether the name is in Surname or given name - 2 or more words in the name section in the passport you can apply straight away.

I guess if there are two names in the given name field then it should be ok. Give it a shot, if it gets rejected then you have to make the changes by changing the passport as per rules.
