Manama - Post Report Question and Answers
How do you send and receive your letters and package mail? Are local postal facilities adequate?
We use the Embassy or the DPO. The DPO was very quick. I had something FEDEX'd to me once from the US, it got to me quickly, but there was a lot of confusion and back and forth about the address. Bahrain Post is not known for its efficiency and reliability - and because of the DPO I hardly ever used the local mail system. - Apr 2017

We use FPO and pouch service. It's very convenient (again,we're spoilt) , but for others, there are several good services around DHL, FEDEX, etc. - Apr 2010
