KUWAIT CITY: Foreigners can now apply for a three-month Kuwaiti tourist visa at the Kuwaiti consulate in their countries. The validity of the visa may be extended up to one year, says a statement issued by ministry of interior.
A directive issued by Interior Minister Sheikh Jaber Al-Khaled Al-Sabah that the amended residence law also allows expatriates with valid residence permits in one of the GCC nations to enter Kuwait on a tourist visa obtained upon arrival at any of the entry ports provided the residence permits are valid for more than six months.
Such visas may be obtained from Kuwaiti consulates.
