🇧🇭 Bahrain visa requirements for Armenian citizens

Entry rules for Armenia passport holders

Before traveling to Bahrain, Armenian citizens must apply for an electronic visa through the official Bahrain government portal. Processing usually takes from a few hours to a few business days, so apply well before your flight. Print a copy of the approval to show at check-in and on arrival.

Entry rules can change at short notice. Always confirm current requirements with the official Bahrain immigration authority or your nearest embassy before booking.

How this compares

The Armenian passport ranks #126 worldwide, opening 70 destinations without a visa arranged in advance (34 visa-free, 34 with a visa on arrival and 2 with an eTA). Bahrain is not among them — it is one of the 93 destinations that still require an embassy visa or an application before departure.

The arrangement is reciprocal: Bahraini citizens traveling to Armenia face the same requirement (e-visa).

Across Western Asia as a whole, 7 of 16 destinations are open to Armenian travelers without arranging a visa in advance.
