New CPR Card for Dependents

Go to Bahrain.bh under identity card services.  The process is self explanatory and read the requirements. Keep in mind that first time issuance may require in person visit.

I logged in using my eKey > Family services > Add family & Domestic worker

But it's giving me an error:

"Apologies, the added family member does not meet the relationship condition."

Take an appointment for an in person visit.

What are the documents needed for wife and Kids?

Passport, visa, photos, address.

hi I would like to take a CPR card for my wife and kids. They are new to Bahrain and have a valid RP. My CPR is active.

Q1. Can I get this done online?
Q2. My latest address compeny name. Should I take change my new flat adress also
the owner room he is not bharain now
what wecan do
Q3. What are the other documents required?

1) You can try but usually for first timers, it is an in person visit
2) Your family would need to be on the same address as you.  If that can't happen, change it.  Lease agreement and municipality letter would be needed.  Search the forum, I have answered the same question dozens of times
3) Again use search

I go many places. Please help me about my wife cpr. Thank you

Thank you expat_Para.

I will be going through the same process for my wife and daughter. I have everything, but my marriage certificate is from KSA. The certificate is attested by all relevant authorities in KSA. Do I still have to get it attested by MOFA Bahrain ?? If yes, will they attest a copy or original ? Also can anyone advise how I can get this done ?

Yes attested by MOFA Bahrain.  And they will always attest original (could be different for Indians as they are providing an original affidavit from their Embassy).   This is done at MOFA camp office in Manama next to Bab Al Bahrain.   Although I am not sure if they will attest it without it being attested by Bahrain Embassy in Saudi first.

On the other hand, your family visas have already been issued - these require marriage certificate, so you might not need an attestation.  Especially once you get the residence permits for family stamped........then they will be under your sponsorship.

Excellent to hear. Thank you so much. Can you advise what size pics required with what background? For actually bringing it to the cpr office

CPR Photo requirements

Thanks for the detailed information.

Just wanted to check if my marriage certificate is already attested in UAE by MOFA, then do i need to redo it here in Bahrain as well and also same for my kids as well?

The attestation that is being referred to is by Bahrain Embassy in UAE and then MOFA in Bahrain.

so i will have to go to the Indian Embassy in Bahrain and get an affidavit prepared and then get it attested by MOFA??

I am planning to move to Bahrain within the next few weeks along with my Wife. I already got the Work permit and the dependent Visa for my wife is in progress as per the LMRA site.

Accommodation for first 2 weeks will be provided by the company and then we will have to arrange for a rented accommodation. My doubt is...Once we reach Bahrain, i understand that the company will apply for my CPR card. But to apply the CPR card for my wife, we will need a Lease agreement and address certificate which we will not have unless we finalize a house. Will my wife be allowed to stay during this interval without the CPR card?

There is no restriction for your wife to stay with you in Bahrain. Even after getting all the documents, you need need to update your CPR address to the new flat which you will rent then you need to apply for the CPR for your wife.

To clarify, your stay is determined by your residence visa which both of you will have.  You can enter and leave as you like.  The CPR card is necessary for availing services e.g. getting a SIM, opening bank account etc etc.

Thank you Neemish and XTang...!!

hii,

Yes, you can stay without CPR Card as the CPR number would be issued to you on the Visa which would be pasted once you go to LMRA. that number would be the same once you get CPR

For address certificate, do we need declaration from owner that he is responsible for municipality fee. or its responsibility of tenant.

any format for municipality declaration

It should mention it on the lease.  And the tax is part of the EWA bill.

Documents required for new CPR of wife and children

Same as when you applied/renewed.

Please send me a message with your problem and I will be able to help you.

Is it mandatory to get apply or get new CPR for dependents?? bank account, sim not needed..

It is not just for bank account or SIM.  If they need to go to the hospital, CPR will be needed.  Ditto education etc.  And as per rules, having a CPR for residents is mandatory.
