Visit visa

-

I will soon be working in a private sector company at the end of this month. I want to confirm something regarding visit visa. I want to get one for my daughter.

1st my salary is 250 that’s basic not including the incentives commission.

2nd my daughter is using her father’s name but her middle name is mine even though we’re no longer married.

Would I be able to get her a visit visa?

Answer: The salary cap for obtaining visit visa for immediate family members (wife, husband and children) is KD 200. For other members of the family it is KD 300. With a salary of KD 250, you are qualified to apply for a visit visa for your daughter. We don’t think your daughter having her father’s name and yours as part of her name will pose a problem. So go ahead and apply for the visa by attaching the required documents to the applicatio­n. Medication Hello sir, I have recently sent a visit visa for my wife and one-yearold son. Sadly my son got TB. Now he is under six months treatment course. My doubt is if he comes to Kuwait can he bring his medicine along without problem? We don’t want him to miss a single dose within the six months. His antibiotic­s are RIFAMPICIN, ISONIEZID, PYRAZHEMID­E. Please advise me. Name withheld Answer: Tuberculos­is (TB) is one of the ailments of which its sufferers are denied residency in Kuwait. Your one-year-old son and by extension your wife risk being denied entry into the country if it is establishe­d at the airport that the antibiotic­s you mentioned are meant for the treatment of your son’s ailment (TB). We, therefore, advise that you cancel the trip, let the child go through the six-month treatment course after which we believe he will be completely healed and won’t have any problem in entering Kuwait with a new visit visa.
