Bahrain launches 10-year multiple-entry visa for US citizens

Bahrain’s Nationality, Passport and Residence Affairs (NPRA) division has introduced a new 10-year multiple-entry visa for US citizens, local media have reported.

The visa allows for a stay of up to 90 days during each visit to the kingdom.

It can be applied for online at a fee of BHD60.

In July, the US said that it would issue Bahraini nationals 10-year multiple-entry visas. Previously, the maximum duration of US visas granted to Bahrainis was five years.

In September, Bahrain reopened its borders to tourists and non-residents following the introduction of new Covid-19 testing measures in the kingdom.
