Bahrain has introduced a streamlined eVisa system that allows eligible travellers from Seychelles to obtain their entry permit online, prior to departure. This modern approach replaces traditional embassy-based applications with a faster, paperless process.
Citizens of Seychelles holding a valid passport (with at least 6 months of remaining validity) can apply online for a Bahrain eVisa. This visa is suitable for:
Permitted stay durations include 14, 30, or 90 days, depending on the selected visa type. For detailed information on each option, please refer to the Bahrain eVisa Types webpage.
Make sure you have the following ready before starting your application:
By air:Upload a confirmed round-trip ticket
By land or sea:Provide a short note mentioning entry method, stay period, and onward route
Hotel booking confirmation, or
Copy of the Bahraini host’s ID (if staying with friends or relatives)
Additional documents may be requested. For complete details, please refer to the Bahrain eVisa Requirements webpage.
Getting your Bahrain eVisa is straightforward:
Provide accurate passport and travel information as required in the application form.
Submit clear, coloured scans of the required documents.
Make a secure payment using a valid debit or credit card, or via PayPal.
Once approved, the Bahrain eVisa will be delivered to your registered email address. Regular status updates will be shared during the process.
Carry a printed copy of your approved eVisa and present it along with your passport at the Bahrain port of entry.
Add Applicant Feature:
If you are travelling with others, you may use the “Add Applicant” feature to include multiple travellers within a single application session. Each traveller must have a separate passport and set of required documents, while the primary applicant will receive all status updates. Each eVisa is processed and issued separately.
Seychellois applicants may choose a processing speed based on travel urgency, each with its own service fee.
