Hi Everyone.
We will be relocating to Bahrain next week. My son who works in Abu Dhabi and his wife who live in South Africa want to visit us on November in Bahrain. What are the procedures to get visas for them. My husband and I will already be living in Bahrain but are not sure how we go about getting our Son and his wife over for a vacation. Any help would be most appreciated.
Visa info needed

Based on Bahrain Electronic Visa Services website, South African passports do require a visa to enter Bahrain.
You must have a sponsor who can apply for a visa on your behalf. Contact one of the following for assistance:
- Your airline.
- Your intended hotel in Bahrain.
- A Bahrain travel agent.
- A Bahrain company which is willing to sponsor you.
- A Bahrain citizen who is willing to sponsor you.

Alternatively, you can contact your nearest Bahrain embassy.
