Purchasing a property in Bahrain comes with permanent residency rights. Legislative Decree No 2 of 2001 states that non-Bahrainis, whether natural or corporate persons, may own land in Bahrain. Foreigners, resident or not, can now buy property and rent it out in Ahmed Al-Fateh, Hoora, Bu Ghazal, Seef, and Northern Manama, which are all in the capital city, Manama. Foreigners can also buy in Durrat Al-Bahrain, Amwaj Islands, and Dannat Hawar – reclaimed areas earmarked for tourist developments.

There are no income taxes in Bahrain. There is no withholding tax, capital gains tax, gift or inheritance tax. A 10% municipal tax is levied on all properties leased to expatriates.
The Bahraini economy does not rely on oil – since the late 20th century, Bahrain has invested heavily in developing the banking and tourism sectors. Bahrain has a high Human Development Index (ranked 48th in the world) and was recognized by the World Bank for its high income economy. In 2001, the United States designated Bahrain a major non-NATO ally.
In 2002, Bahrain was split into 5 administrative governates, each with its own governor.
Select one of the 5 governates of Bahrain:
1. Capital
2. Central
3. Muharraq
4. Northern
5. Southern
