Start Your Bahrain eVisa Application

CAPTCHA code

The Kingdom of Bahrain offers a streamlined, fully digital process for Malawian citizens seeking short-term entry, the Bahrain eVisa. Malawian passport holders can bypass traditional embassy visits and obtain their necessary travel authorisation online, from anywhere in the world.

Selecting Your Bahrain Entry eVisa

  • Bahrain Tourist eVisa: Ideal for recreational activities, holidays, sightseeing, and exploring Bahraini culture.
  • Bahrain Business eVisa: Required for professional meetings, industry conferences, or commercial negotiations.
  • Bahrain Family eVisa: Intended for immediate family members visiting a relative who is a lawful resident in Bahrain.

For frequent travel over 1 year, consider applying for the Multiple-Entry eVisa, which permits unlimited entries during its validity period.

Key Documents that are Necessary for Mawali Citizens

Before starting your online application, ensure you have digital copies of the following mandatory items:

  • Valid Passport: A scan of your biodata page. Your passport must remain valid for at least 6 months after your planned departure date from Bahrain.
  • Proof of Travel:
    • Air Travel: A digital copy of your confirmed return flight ticket (e.g., e-ticket receipt).
    • Other Transport: A signed, detailed written itinerary specifying your entry and exit transportation (non-air) and your next destination.
  • Accommodation Proof:
    • Hotel: A booking confirmation covering your entire stay.
    • Private Stay: If you are staying with a resident, provide a digital copy of your host's Bahraini National ID Card.
  • Financial Capability: Documentation, such as a summary of your bank statements from the past three months, demonstrating that you have adequate funds to cover all expenses during your visit.

Be sure to check out our Bahrain eVisa Document Requirements webpage for the most current and comprehensive list of required documentation.
