No dependent Visa for children above 12 Years


Children above 12 year are not eligible to get dependent visa, reported local Arabic daily Al-Jarida.

According to Al-Jarida newspaper, the new regulation stipulates that an expatriate children of above 12 years of age are not eligible to get a dependent visa.

The Arabic paper also reported that the residence permits of children under dependent visa (son) will not be eligible for renewal once the son is crossed 18 years of age unless they produce proof of that they are registered at one of the local universities.

This will inversely affect the families with 12 years and above kids who are planning to join with their husband in Kuwait. However this will not affect the kids who are already in Kuwait under family residency.
