Hello

I've Applied for my Bahrain golden visa 10 days ago and its still showing in progress. But the cancel request cross has switched from red color to purple color. Does that mean anything? Also if they DO end up approving my visa how much do I need to pay . And also approximately how long do they take to issue it or reject it ?

No. Agents are useless in this. This type of visa is meant to be applied by you, yourself and online.

1) Yes

2) Yes

3) Yes

4) Look at your visa - the date will show you how long it is valid for

5) Depends on employer. No, you have to follow the labor law regarding notice period etc.

Hello, I am applying for the golden visa under the highly talented category. And it is requesting me to upload a proof document. How can I obtain this document for the startup and entrepreneurs category?

Dears,

I work in Saudi but have lived in Bahrain for about 25 years and am now applying for the Golden Visa.

As my health insurance covers Saudi only I went to GIG to purchase it.

The gentleman there said that he believes the visa requirement is health insurance for 2 years - which they do not provide. Do you know if this is the requirement or is 1 year sufficient?

Many Thanks.
