Work visas for Pakistan National
Posted in Bahrain forum 24 Jan 2012, 09:49
I have been offered a job in Bahrain which I have accepted. However, I am now informed that there is a work permit issue that relates to Pakistani nationals. Is it true that Pakistani nationals have visa/work permit constraints in Bahrain or is my potential employer having second thoughts. Please advise.

Unfortunately it is true. If your name is anywhere close to Ali, Abbass, Hussain (typical shia names) then your chances of getting the work permit are quite slim, to be honest.
What sort of job is it? If you don't mind me asking.
Kindest Regards,
