Citizens and residents in Bahrain can now file police reports and access a range of security services through the MyGov application, the Ministry of Interior announced yesterday.

The app enables users to report incidents directly to police stations, the General Directorate of Anti-Corruption and Economic and Electronic Security, and the Investigation and Follow-Up Department at the Nationality, Passports, and Residence Affairs (NPRA).

It also provides a dedicated service for reporting online child abuse cases, ensuring immediate access to law enforcement support.

MyGov offers an electronic service for requesting and verifying Good Conduct Certificates, issued through the Criminal Information Directorate at the General Directorate of Crime Detection and Forensic Evidence. This feature simplifies the process for individuals needing official background checks, eliminating the need for in-person visits.

NPRA services available on MyGov include passport issuance and renewal, residency applications and renewals, and travel permit issuance.

The platform provides a more efficient alternative to traditional service centres, reducing waiting times and improving accessibility.

Users can now handle General Directorate of Traffic services through MyGov, allowing them to renew driving licences, pay traffic fines instantly, and renew vehicle registrations without visiting service centres.

These features streamline traffic-related procedures, making transactions faster and more convenient. H.E. General Shaikh Rashid bin Abdullah Al Khalifa, Minister of Interior and Chairman of the Ministerial Committee for Information and Communication Technology, said the initiative aligns with the vision of His Majesty King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa and was made possible with the support of His Royal Highness Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa, the Crown Prince and Prime Minister.
