Expatriates may soon obtain physical driving license

  • 03/07/2024

A security official revealed that the Ministry of Interior is contemplating the idea of allowing expatriates to acquire a physical driving license for a fee ranging from 10 to 30 dinars. This decision comes after receiving complaints from the General Traffic Department about expatriates encountering difficulties with their digital driving licenses when traveling by land to other Gulf and Arab nations. It has been noted that traffic authorities in these countries frequently do not acknowledge the digital licenses from the "Kuwait Mobile ID" app, leading to legal infractions. The source confirmed that the digital licenses on the "Kuwait Mobile ID" app will still be recognized by traffic and security patrols within Kuwait.
