Renewal bahrain driving license

ExpatBahrain

Hi, I was living in Bahrain earlier and had a local driving license. I left Bahrain a couple of years ago and during that time, my driving license expired in August 2017. Now I will be returning to Bahrain in March 2018. Will I be able to renew my license immediately or will I be required to go through the entire process again?
Thank you.

Hi,
Unfortunately, you will have to go through the entire process again.

Good day,

fortunately, you can renew your driving licence, just make sure your visa does mention you being employed as driver or a office Clark of any sort, but not a normal worker.

you can do it throug :

- bahrain.bh, if you have the ekey ( requires registration & password )
- traffic directorate
- any post office.

best regards,

Dear raoof,

The OP said " I left Bahrain a couple of years ago and during that time, my driving license expired in August 2017

I believe if its expired he cannot renew it.

No that is incorrect.  Work permit expiry has nothing to do with driving licence expiry.
