If I understood correctly, your husband is leaving Bahrain?聽 if he physically leaves Bahrain i.e. gets his work permit cancelled then it is a possibility.聽 Then he has to give a notarised NOC allowing you to sponsor the kids.聽 If he is not leaving or not getting his work permit cancelled, you cannot sponsor the kids - expat moms are not allowed to do that and very few exceptions allowed only for senior people in financial services industry.

The only other option is if you have an investor visa.聽 NOC still needed but kids can be sponsored.
