In October 2015, the Bahraini e-Government Authority merged with the Central Informatics Organization to form the Information and e-Government Authority (IGA), which manages and oversees all national digital assets. The IGA maintains, and is part of, the Government Data Network, established in 1994, which links together 300 governmental entities.
Census 2020’s implementation method:
Census 2020 was conducted solely on the basis of administrative records on the de jure population of the Kingdom.
Population of reference: all individuals (nationals and non-nationals) usually present within the State’s borders during time of reference.
The nationality of the person is defined by the passport used to enter the country. A non-Bahraini is considered as such depending on the passport used to enter the country (or obtain the visa)
