Bahrain yesterday launched a website (www.goldenresidendy.gov.bh) and a hotline (+973 17484000) dedicated to providing information on its Golden Residency Program.

The aim of this initiative is to attract exceptionally talented individuals and investment into the Kingdom of Bahrain, and in line with strategic efforts to enhance national competitiveness and support development across various economic, investment, and service sectors.

The new services work towards providing a point of reference for interested applicants and beneficiaries.

Since the Golden Residency Program was first launched in 2022 as part of the Economic Recovery Plan, the Nationality, Passports, and Residence Affairs (NPRA) has granted permanent residency to investors, expats owning real estate, artists, athletes, talented professionals, and long-serving employees alongside their dependents.

Her Excellency Noor bint Ali Alkhulaif, Minister of Sustainable Development, Chief Executive of Bahrain Economic Development Board said, “With its strategic location and its business-supportive ecosystem, the Kingdom of Bahrain has always been a hub for both global talent and investment.

“The Golden Residency Program reaffirms our commitment to fostering a dynamic and welcoming environment where individuals and businesses can thrive and become part of Bahrain’s growth plans. Bahrain is committed to consistently providing streamlined and advanced services to its citizens, residents, and visitors.”

“The website and hotline going live enable us to provide comprehensive information on the program, which will support in attracting talent and investment, thereby positioning the Kingdom as one of the region’s tourism destinations of choice,” she added.

Bahrain has cemented itself as the destination of choice for global professionals and investors.

With its welcoming community and high quality of life, it offers an attractive home for all. Residents enjoy a cosmopolitan lifestyle that blends modern island living with rich cultural heritage.

As a regional business hub, Bahrain offers 100% foreign ownership in most sectors, a competitive taxation system, and a highly skilled bilingual workforce.

Positioned at the heart of the Arabian Gulf, residents will experience strategic access to key markets and a business-friendly regulatory environment that fosters innovation and investment.

H.E. Shaikh Hisham bin Abdulrahman Al Khalifa, Undersecretary of the Ministry of Interior for NPRA, hailed the program.
