What medical test do I need before flying to Bahrain?

Before travelling to Bahrain you must pass the Wafid (GAMCA) medical test in Bangladesh at a Gulf-approved centre. Book on the Wafid website, bring your passport, and test before you fly. It checks for diseases like tuberculosis, hepatitis and HIV. You need a fit result before your work visa can proceed, and the result is sent electronically to Gulf authorities. The fit slip is valid only a short time, so do not test too early. After you arrive in Bahrain there is also a confirmation medical check as part of getting your work card and residency. Keep all medical papers. If you are found unfit in Bangladesh, you cannot travel to fix it later.
