What Bahrain's NHRA asks for
The National Health Regulatory Authority (NHRA) licenses health professionals in Bahrain. A professional from abroad applies on NHRA's online system, Mehan, and one step of the application is to validate the verification report from DataFlow (or QuadraBay).
DataFlow's NHRA package includes your Good Standing Certificate: you upload it with your other documents, and DataFlow checks your good standing status with the council that registered you. DataFlow says this check is part of the NHRA package, at no extra cost.
For an Indian nurse, doctor or allied health professional, the certificate comes from your state council: KNMC in Kerala, TNNMC in Tamil Nadu, the Karnataka State Nursing Council, the medical council of your state, and so on.
Good to know before you apply
From NHRA's application guide and DataFlow's NHRA pages.
It goes into your DataFlow report
NHRA works with the DataFlow report. A good standing certificate that does not match your registration delays the report.
Doctors and other professionals too
DataFlow lists the Good Standing Certificate for physicians, non-physicians, consultants and specialists.
Allow time for DataFlow
DataFlow's NHRA page gives an average of about 20 working days once all documents are in. In our cases a new DataFlow usually takes 30 to 35 working days after payment and a complete set of documents. Apply for the certificate first.
