Hiring Filipino Workers for Bahrain

Private sector employers in Bahrain generally apply for expatriate work permits through the Labour Market Regulatory Authority. The worker should not begin work without the correct permit. Medical clearance and role-specific approvals can also apply.

Core Work and Migration Requirements
  • The Bahrain employer applies for the expatriate work permit through the Labour Market Regulatory Authority.
  • Workers recruited from abroad need a valid passport and the documents required for the work permit application.
  • An employment contract is required. Contracts can need Arabic or bilingual Arabic content, depending on the application route and official format.
  • Workers recruited from outside Bahrain complete the required pre-employment medical process. Wafid or another approved medical route may apply based on nationality and occupation.
  • Bahrain also requires an expatriate medical examination for work permit and residency purposes after arrival in the cases covered by the health rules.
  • Specialized occupations can require approval from the responsible authority. Examples include doctors, engineers, teachers, and some financial services roles.
  • Bahrain gives priority to local recruitment. Employer applications for workers from abroad can be subject to local vacancy advertising and Labour Market Regulatory Authority review.
Qualification and Professional Requirements

Fil-Expat screens the worker before the permit stage. We review the candidate’s education, work experience, technical skills, and documents. For regulated professions, we also identify the local approval or licensing step before deployment.

Philippine Recruitment and Deployment Requirements

Bahrain employers hiring Filipino workers must complete the Philippine accreditation and job order process. The employment contract and employer documents must meet Department of Migrant Workers standards. The worker also completes the required Philippine medical and deployment documents before an Overseas Employment Certificate can be issued.
