How to use this checklist

Document requirements

|---|---|---|---|
| work permit work or residence application | authority confirmation required | visa application | Unverified preparation outline only. The official Bahrain route controls the permit category, application channel and final document list. |

| Bahraini employer work-permit application and sponsorship evidence | authority confirmation required | receiving institution | Unverified preparation outline only. The employment route depends on a qualifying employer, job or sponsor and its route-specific evidence. |
| Passport, work-permit form and route-specific medical, employment or professional documents | authority confirmation required | visa application | Unverified preparation outline only. Qualification, salary and financial evidence vary by occupation, permit category and employer. |
| Translation and document-format requirements | authority confirmation required | visa application | Unverified preparation outline only. Translation or legalisation is route- and document-specific; the authority's current checklist controls. |

FAQs
Are all documents for Bahrain work automatically translated?
No. Translation is shown per document row because official sources may accept some documents as issued while requiring translation for others.
Can I order document processing from this checklist?
Build your checklist using the route facts first. A processing option can be selected only where supported by the document row. Rows needing language or authentication confirmation remain under review before pricing.
