Tamkeen · Bahrain
Tamkeen support, applied for properly and actually received.
Tamkeen offers real support to businesses in Bahrain, but applications are often refused or delayed for avoidable reasons. SRR checks what you qualify for, builds an application that stands up, and manages it through to approval and reimbursement.
The Support
What Tamkeen support looks like.
Programme rules, support levels, and caps are set by Tamkeen and change from time to time. We work from the current position rather than last year’s.
Wage and salary support
Support towards the wages of Bahraini employees, aimed at helping businesses hire and retain national talent. Eligibility depends on the employee profile and the programme in force.
Enterprise and growth grants
Co-matching grants towards approved business costs such as equipment, systems, and business development, typically covering a share of the cost up to a cap.
Financing support
Subsidised financing arranged through partner banks, to help businesses expand or manage working capital.
What We Handle
The whole application, not just the form.
Winning support is about applying for the right programme with the right evidence, then staying on top of it afterwards.

Common Questions
Tamkeen support, answered.
What is Tamkeen?
Tamkeen is Bahrain’s Labour Fund, a public authority set up to support the private sector as part of the Kingdom’s economic vision. It runs a range of programmes for businesses, including wage and salary support for Bahraini employees, co-matching grants towards approved business costs, and subsidised financing through partner banks.
What support can my business actually get?
That depends on your business, your workforce, and the programmes open at the time. Broadly, support falls into wage and salary support for Bahraini staff, grants towards approved business costs, and financing support. Programme rules, support levels, and caps are set by Tamkeen and change from time to time, so eligibility should be checked against the current position.
Do you handle the whole application?
Yes. We assess eligibility, prepare the application and the supporting documents, submit it, and manage the follow-up with Tamkeen. After approval, we handle the reporting and reimbursement claims.
Why use a consultant rather than applying directly?
Applications are refused or delayed most often for avoidable reasons: the wrong programme, a weak justification, or missing documents. We make sure you apply for the right support with a pack that stands up, and we chase the process rather than letting it stall.
Can you help if we have been rejected before?
Often, yes. We review why the application failed, whether a different programme fits better, and what needs to change before reapplying.
