Bahrain eVisa Guide for the Citizens of Malta

Selecting the Correct Bahrain eVisa Type

Maltese citizens can choose from several eVisa categories based on the purpose and frequency of their visit:

• Bahrain Tourist eVisa: This eVisa is intended primarily for short, leisurely travel in Bahrain.
• Bahrain Business eVisa: Meant only for taking part in small and short vital meetings, conferences and other business-related issues in a couple of days.
• Bahrain Family eVisa: Only intended for visiting close family and relatives within a short period.

For applicants planning multiple trips within 12 months, the Multiple-Entry eVisa is the most effective and efficient option, allowing unlimited entries during its validity period.

Bahrain eVisa Document Requirements

• Valid Maltese Passport: A high-resolution photocopy of the bio-data page. The passport must remain valid for at least 6 months beyond the planned date of departure.

• Accommodation Proof:
• Hotel Stay: A reservation confirmation covering the entire stay.
• Private Stay: A clear digital image of the host’s Bahraini National Identity Card.
• Proof of Funds: Documentation, such as bank statements covering the last 3 months, must be provided to demonstrate sufficient funds to cover all expenses during the stay in Bahrain.
