Hi,

Do dependents when they arrive in Bahrain need to udergo a medical test? Unfortunately my spouse has hepatitis B, so what would be the situation in this case?

Hello there and welcome to the forum. As far as I know, everyone coming to Bahrain on a residence visa of one form or another has to undergo a medical check up. But you might want to check this with your new company's HR department as they are the ones who will be experienced in this matter.

From what I remember, my wife did not undergo a medical test when she arrived here as my dependent. But laws could have changed now.

Call HR, like brightonguy suggested and let them check it out for you.
