Decision does not affect other Gulf Cooperation Council nationals and residents.
Manama: Bahrain on Tuesday formally imposed entry visas on Qatari nationals and on expatriates residing in Qatar.
The decision was announced by Interior Minister Shaikh Abdullah Bin Rashid Al Khalifa, a day after King Hamad Bin Eisa Al Khalifa called for imposing visas to reinforce entry and residency procedures and ensure the safety and security of the kingdom, starting with Qatar.
Obtaining the visa requires submitting an application in accordance with the instructions published on the website of the Nationality, Passports and Residence, Shaikh Rashid said.
