Bahrain: bra att veta före resan

Det viktigaste

  • Check current official regional-security advice and airline updates before travel.
  • Visa eligibility depends on nationality; GCC citizens are exempt.
  • Carry photo ID; public drunkenness and illegal drugs can lead to prosecution.

Inresa och visum

GCC citizens do not need a visa. Other visitors must check nationality-specific eligibility with NPRA. British citizens can apply online, at an embassy or on arrival; the usual arrival visa is for two weeks. Do not assume these British-passport terms apply to another nationality.
