Kuwait: Multiple-Trip Exit Permit Introduced
January 26, 2026
Kuwait has introduced a multiple-trip exit permit, allowing foreign workers to exit and re-enter Kuwait multiple times within a defined validity period, rather than applying for a single trip exit permit for each trip. Employers and foreign nationals can apply online for exit permits through the Ashal portal or the Sahel application. The multiple-trip exit permit makes travel easier by reducing administrative burden and allowing foreign national employees to depart and return to Kuwait several times using a single permit.
