Work Visa travelling to Bahrain

K
#1
Hello,

Can anyone please clarify, LMRA has issued me work visa (I have the work visa PDF file, its like a eVisa). I just want to make sure people holding newly issued LMRA work visa are being allowed to travel to Bahrain? 

I don't know whether this LMRA work visa is called an eVisa or not since gulf air website says about eVisa not work visa.

Kindly clarify.
Thank you

Thank you XTang for the quick reply

- Entry is restricted to Bahraini citizens, residents, GCC citizens who do not need a visa, passengers eligible to obtain a visa on arrival, passengers with a valid eVisa, diplomats, military personnel, airline crew, or holders of official, service or UN passports

I can find a flight to Bahrain however on Gulfair website, it does not mention anything about work visa, I have copied and pasted above.

Thank you, brother. do you have an idea of how much fee I need to pay at the airport for any medical or anything else? I know I need to pay 40BD for the PCR testing, apart from this, is there anything else?
