The UAE has launched a new initiative with Bahrain, simplifying travel for citizens of both countries. The 'One-Point Air Travellers' project with Bahrain aims to save and effort. The first phase covers Zayed International Airport in Abu Dhabi and Bahrain International Airport.
The new project enables pre-departure clearance for citizens of both countries travelling by air between the UAE and Bahrain. Through electronic connectivity, biometric verification systems, surveillance technologies, e-gates, and advanced passenger data processing, travellers’ movements are verified and documented before arrival at their final destination.
This enables citizens of both countries to complete the entry procedures at their departure airports, reducing congestion, accelerating entry processes, and delivering a more seamless, secure, and comfortable travel experience.
The initiative is expected to boost tourism, trade and economic activity, while strengthening security and regional integration.
