Kuwait to Revise Visit Visa Fees

  • 13/12/2024

An internal committee within the Ministry of Interior is currently evaluating the fees associated with visit visas. The objective is to establish reciprocal arrangements with foreign nations and to permit expatriates to sponsor their relatives for extended durations. This information was conveyed by the head of the Residency and Nationality Department. According to the recently enacted residency law, which was issued through an Amiri decree, the minister now has the authority to modify fees for all services provided by the ministry. 

This marks a departure from the previous requirement that necessitated legislative amendments to alter fees, as explained by Assistant Undersecretary for Residency and Nationality, Major General Ali Al-Adwani, during an interview on the 60 Minutes program aired on Kuwait TV news channel.
