Student Visa Bahrain

About

A student visa in Bahrain gives a foreign citizen the chance to temporarily come to Bahrain in order to take a course of study there. An increasingly common choice for undergraduates from around the world is to study in Bahrain. Bahrain has a long history of educational success and has numerous academic institutions.

Bahrain has seen a major increase in immigration in recent years. A relatively lenient immigration policy and the high standard of living that may be found in the nation both play a role in this. A study visa permits the holder to remain in Bahrain and work (in a limited capacity) while finishing their programme in order to support oneself and any dependents.

Eligibility

The following eligibility criteria for a student visa must be met;

  • A letter depicting that you have been accepted to study at a reputable university.
  • Candidates must be able to show that they have the resources necessary to support themselves in a foreign country.
  • The entire payment of the course costs must be documented.
  • At the conclusion of their study year, candidates must have a clear intention of returning to their home country.

Documents

You must provide,

  • Identity documents, including passport etc.
  • Passport-sized photographs must be attached to the documents.
  • An invitation from an educational institute in Bahrain.
  • Proof that you do not have any kind of criminal record.
  • A health certificate proving that you do not have any infectious disease.
  • Documents related to previous education records.

Process

You must file for a student visa while still in your home country. In the event that there have been any changes, it is always essential to verify the most recent information on visa requirements.

Visa Processing Time
Depending on the applicant's nationality and other variables, the processing time for the student visa may take up to two months or longer. Once you accept the offer, you should send the aforementioned documents as soon as you can.

In order to ensure that the visas are effective in time for the student's arrival in Bahrain, the Student Services team will begin sending visa applications to immigration at the end of June.
