The Information and eGovernment authority announced the restoration of all its services through bahrain.bh- the national portal, after a downtime extending to several hours.

Without specifying what actually caused the “emergency downtime”, igabahrain wrote on its Instagram channel: “Dear customers, we are back! All eServices and eGovernment channels are now available online.

You can benefit from our eServices via bahrain.bh/app or bahrain.bh.” bahrain.bh is aligned with Bahrain Strategic Vision 2030 and maintained by the Information and eGovernment Authority.
