Do i mention one way or two ways?? Also a question that just poped up now,will i need pcc for the duration i was coming from saudi to bahrain from bahrain??i will be getting from bahrain anyways since now its my country of residency but will i need a separate pcc for the period when i used to come but saudi was my country of residency or the one that i will get now from bahrain will be ok and cover all

Have you made any travels from Bahrain to Saudi Arabia? If yes, then you need to mention those as well.

And that question was also on my mind. CIC says that even if you are not a resident of one country but have spent more than 6 months cumulatively in that country (via tourism/business trips etc) then you would need to furnish a PCC for that country. So when you were a Saudi resident and you traveled to Bahrain, try calculating the total number of days you spent in Bahrain. If that total is equal to 180 or more days, then yes you would probably need to get a Bahrain PCC for those days as well. For e.g. when you were a Saudi resident and you traveled to Bahrain 30 times for 2 days each. The total would be 60 days in Bahrain so you won't be required to furnish a Bahrain PCC for that time. Hopefully you understand what I'm trying to say.

Well i doubt that i came to bahrain for 180 days or more in total but again i will have to at leasr check how many stamps i have anyways to have a rough idea but even if how come will i be able to issue a pcc for that period from bahrain??and is bahraini pcc time bound or not i mean will it state pcc from date to date or only will mention the issue date and cover all previous dates

I don't really know what the Bahraini PCC looks like or contain but Saudi PCC only mentions the date of issue and it is implied that all previous dates are covered starting from residency date. I assume it's the same for Bahrain too.

If it's less than 180 days in total, you're good but if it turns out to be more than 180 days, maybe you can remove some visits from travel history that were on your previous passport to make the total less than 180 days so you don't have to get a PCC for that time. Just a suggestion since you don't need to upload previous passport and the stamps therein.

I checked the stamps and they are 179 in total but that includes exit and entry stamps will have to check each jndivudyally but that means that i spent less than 180 days before moving to here
