Hi members,
I would like to know how an Indian expat with UAE international licence can get Bahrain driving licence.
He already has VISA and CPR. Is he going to loose his UAE licence if he gets Bahraini Licence.?
Thanks, have a nice day

This is a recent entry posted for conversion of Saudi license.. I guess the process would be similar for other GCC license as well.

Yes he can get a Bahrain license, but he wont be able to retain his UAE license.
