Hi,

Unfortunately, i don't think there is such a rule. If you can speak to your building manager explain him the situation, if he understands may be he could do something.

I am sure if anyone else has more info on the same, they would reply back.

If you have the diplomatic clause in your contract, then you are okay. It should state that on losing your job you can vacate the property at any time giving 1 months notice

Hi Jamin ,

There is a Diplomatic Clause which will protect you to terminate the lease agreement and get a refund for a deposited money,by providing a clear evidence such as cancelled visa by the employer and a ticket going back to your own country, with one month notice.

cheers!

If Diplomatic clause is used and rent is broken then what is the implication of this action if a person returns to Bahrain with new Permit Visa? Will he still be liable for the old rental landlord?

If anyone has the diplomatic clause pls share.
