Your employer has to give NOC.  No way around it.

Eirol

What is NOC?

XTang

No objection. And then cancel your visa.

Eirol

What if its already expired? Still need NOC from employer?

XTang

From housemaid visa to any other visa, immigration do tend to ask for NOC.  Sometimes not but mostly yes.

Eirol

Can my employer can cancel my visa even though im still in bahrain?

Yushikoroze Bedrejo

And what if my visa expired in 6 months how much will be the penalties?

You will need to visit NPRA, no one can tell the amount. Once you pay you can exit, but chances of coming back to Bahrain is doubtful.

Hi


Usually NPRA will charge an extension fees of 15-30 BHD. The last one I saw who overstayed in Bahrain for 5 years was 135 BHD just the NPRA Fees. So in your case I would say 50-100 BHD at Max.

For one year immigration fee just 5 bd and delay fee 10bd total 15 bd in one year. If your stay period crossed one year then fee will be 25bd in immigration But agents will charge 30,40 etc..
