Kuwait Bans Several Groups From Entry

June 24, 2011— Kuwaiti authorities recently instituted an entry ban on all nationals of Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq, Pakistan and Syria due to security concerns. This is an absolute ban on all forms of travel, including tourism, business and work visits, and authorities will not make any exceptions. However, Kuwaiti authorities have suggested the ban is temporary and could be lifted if the security situation in these countries were to change.

Nationals of the five listed countries who are already in Kuwait may not be able to obtain new or renew existing residency visas due to the ban.
