Kuwait City, March 19: The government in the previous parliament submitted a draft law that would amend Article 8 of Amiri Decree 15/1959 of the Kuwaiti Nationality Law. This draft law is currently being discussed by the Parliamentary Interior and Defense Committee. The naturalization of foreign women who are married to Kuwaiti men is the subject of the proposed changes.
New provisions are added to Article 8 of Amiri Decree 15/1959 by the draft law. A foreign woman who marries a Kuwaiti man will not automatically become a Kuwaiti citizen under the proposed changes unless she expresses this desire to the Minister of Interior and maintains legal residency in Kuwait for a period of eighteen years following the wedding. If he thinks it's necessary, the interior minister may also stop her from obtaining Kuwaiti citizenship.
