Starlink, the satellite internet venture developed by Elon Musk’s aerospace company SpaceX, has officially launched its high-speed internet service across Bahrain, the company confirmed via its official X account (formerly Twitter).
The launch follows the telecommunications licence granted by Bahrain’s Telecommunications Regulatory Authority (TRA) in 2022, authorizing Starlink to provide satellite-based internet solutions throughout the Kingdom.

Using a constellation of low Earth orbit satellites, Starlink delivers high-speed, low-latency internet connectivity, particularly benefiting remote and underserved areas.
Beyond domestic and commercial applications, Starlink also supports critical mobile sectors such as aviation and maritime operations, opening new opportunities for innovation in logistics and mobility
