Bahrain to allow entry to people from neighbouring Gulf countries, visa holders

Bahrain will now allow residents from neighbouring Gulf countries as well as holders of electronic visas and those eligible for visas on arrival, its airport authority said on Friday.

A PCR test for the coronavirus is compulsory on arrival and at travellers' expense, the airport said on its official Twitter account. Passengers would have to self-isolate until the results of the test are received and are negative.
