You must be an Australian citizen or be a citizen of a country eligible to apply for a Kuwait tourist eVisa.

Your Australian passport should be valid and also have at least 6 months validity from the entry date to Kuwait. This is an important requirement of the Kuwait visa.

Another requirement of the Kuwait visa is that you must be able to pay for the eVisa electronically with a valid method of card payment.

If you wish to stay in Kuwait longer than the eVisa allows, you need to leave the country and submit a new eVisa application. Once it is approved, you will be able to return.

If you need to visit Kuwait for longer consecutive periods for tourism, or for other purposes, you’ll need to apply for an embassy visa. You can inquire about long-term visa types at the Kuwaiti Embassy in Canberra:
