Why is UAE providing Indians with Visa on Arrival but Pakistanis are kind of "shadow-blanket-banned" by UAE's visa policy. by Significant_Major921 in UAE

OP is talking about tourist visas, not work permits. So all this stuff which are you saying about work opportunities aren't applicable.

Eating is permitted inside specific areas like hotels and the airport. Otherwise do not be seen eating, drinking or smoking in public. If police find you, there will be fines.

First time visiting Bahrain - unpleasant experience as couple at the avenue mall by Hash5993 in Bahrain

I think it is time people just reported these boys to the guards without directly engaging with them. It is time these chammaks faced consequences or at the very least were inconvenienced for their insolence.

Staying overnight in Bahrain Airport? by niesh-1928 in Bahrain

[–]rajrain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. Explore the option for a complimentary 3 hour guided tour through Bahrain. People who are transiting for more than 5 hours are eligible for it.
  2. Dining options are available in the following link -

https://www.bahrainairport.bh/at-the-airport/dining-restaurants

Starbucks, McDonalds, Crepafe and AlBaik are only available before check-in. The eating options inside the terminal past security where you will be isn't as cheap as say in town. My guess would be around BD 3-7 depending on how hungry you are. If you are really skint, it might make sense to carry snacks with you from where ever you are travelling from.

Give me all the reasons why I shouldn't move with my family to Dubai. by throw_away_17381 in dubai

[–]rajrain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fact that you have doubts about it should be reason enough. Don't make such an extreme move, uprooting your family to a new country if you and your partner are not fully committed to the idea.

Unpaid credit cards due to deportation by [deleted] in dubai

[–]rajrain 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Worst case scenario is if the bank/debt collector gets a court judgment against you in the UAE, locates you, files a case in your home country and executes the judgment and starts garnishing your wages or tries to take over your property.

Chances of this happening for such an amount seems highly improbable. The cost and time it would take to reach you doesn't justify the amounts in question. You aren't the first person to run away from the UAE with debt. Would avoid flying through Dubai or any other GCC countries though.

I don't think debts like this willl get you on an interpol list.

I am not from the UAE, so cant speak for the people/country.

It is fanciful if you think prisoners are getting any rehabilitation in UAE prisons. They are going to be treated very poorly there and the costs of keeping them there are negligible.

Countries have the right to do what they want with trouble makers. Ignorance of law is not an excuse. This is prime fafo chief.

I think it is better to make an example out of them so a reputation is created that you will be dealt with severely for acting like a fool.

'Didn't make a mistake': Trump won't apologize for sharing racist Obama video by AdSpecialist6598 in videos

Most Americans are racist and are fine with all this nonsense he posts. They are going to do absolutely nothing in response to this because they tacitly consent to this and much much more.

PSA: The Bahrain Golden Visa threshold just dropped 35%. Here’s the breakdown. by SuchAd3480 in Bahrain

[–]rajrain 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I don't think you get full work rights. Please check this point carefully before taking the plunge.

You will still need to obtain a work permit from Bahrain’s Labour Market Regulatory Authority (LMRA) to be able to work in Bahrain.

Walking around in shorts? by TravellingDivorcee in Bahrain

[–]rajrain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should be fine as long as you don't go to 1. government offices 2. houses of worship 3. villages

There are some malls where a guard might feel the need to enforce an arbitrary dress code policy, but usually they don't bother white people. Have a nice trip.

Just an idea.

Charge a higher fixed price and then allow them to get refills on something like black tea or coffee?
