Visa for Kuwait for a non-GCC resident with RP

By iparacha

Hello everyone

I have recently moved to Qatar from Kuwait, where I was on a Kuwait Work Permit (you could call that an RP), and I am planning to travel to Kuwait during the Eid Holidays to bring my family over to Qatar. I had my Kuwait Work Permit canceled before I came to Qatar.

Now, I'd like to know whether I could get a visa on arrival or not. Someone told me that professionals like engineers do not require to apply for a visa in advance, and they get the visa on arrival.

Could someone please confirm this?

One cannot get ones own RP cancelled without first getting the RP of the dependents cancelled.So I wonder how your family is still in Kuwait if you had sponsored them.If they are not sponsored by you , then it is OK. Visa is available on arrival for GCC residents provided soem stay period and reaming RP period is fulfilled for which you need to find out from Kuwait embassy or online .
