  • For Gregorian calendar: ١٦/١٢/٢٠١٣ميلادي or 16/12/2013.
  • For Islamic calendar: ١٠/١/١٤٣٤هجري
  • Long dates start with day, followed by month and ended with year:
  • For Gregorian calendar: ١٦/ديسمبر/٢٠١٣ميلادي or 16/Dec/2013.
  • For Islamic calendar: ١٠/محرم/١٤٣٤هجري

Time

Official time is indicated with the 12-hour clock system; however, a 24-hour clock system is also used. Bahrain is in the Asia/Bahrain time zone (AST – UTC+03:00).
