Living in Bahrain
Introduction
Bahrain, nestled in the warm, clear waters of the Persian Gulf, is a prosperous and multicultural nation. It’s becoming an increasingly popular destination for expatriates seeking high-paying jobs in a low-tax environment. With its liberal and tolerant society, Bahrain offers a high standard of living, making it an attractive option for those wishing to experience a new life abroad.
A Growing Expat Community
Thanks to its neutral foreign policy and general openness, Bahrain is ideal for Western expatriates. The rising number of international residents has significantly contributed to its status as the fastest-growing economy in the Arab world.
Entry Requirements
Except for citizens of Gulf Cooperation Council countries, all visitors need a visa to enter Bahrain. Many expatriates have their visas sponsored by their employers. The visa options vary widely depending on factors such as job offers and family status. Prospective residents should consult the nearest Bahraini embassy or the Kingdom of Bahrain's Ministry of Interior website for detailed visa application guidance.
Life and Work in Manama
Manama, the capital, is where most expatriates reside and work in key industries such as petroleum, IT, telecommunications, hospitality, medicine, and banking. Due to its popularity, property in Manama is in high demand, so negotiating a housing allowance in your employment package can be beneficial.
Unlike several other Arab nations, foreigners can own property in Bahrain. Many view investing in Bahraini real estate as a solid decision due to the country’s strong economy. However, it’s wise to rent first to ensure the Kingdom suits your lifestyle before committing to a property purchase.
High Standard of Living
Westerners in Bahrain enjoy a remarkably high standard of living. With its thriving economy, cultural diversity, vibrant nightlife, and fantastic shopping, Bahrain continues to attract a growing number of international expatriates each year.
