The Ministry of Foreign Affairs urges citizens to refrain from making fraudulent reservations about Schengen visas. This call aims to streamline the application process for Kuwaiti citizens seeking travel visas to Schengen countries. Fake reservations can impede visa issuance and lead to rejection by the embassy.

The ministry emphasized the importance of engaging with accredited offices through the relevant embassies by accessing their official websites. It also advised against dealing with any offices or intermediaries not accredited by the embassies.

Additionally, the ministry highlighted the need to submit visa applications well in advance of the travel date, adhere to the specified submission date set by the authorized office for visa processing, and ensure all required documents are provided.

The ministry urged citizens to follow bulletins issued by the relevant embassies and to seek information from official sources.

It was also mentioned that in case of emergency abroad, citizens can contact the ministry at any time using the emergency numbers of Kuwait’s diplomatic missions. Additionally, citizens can use the call service center number (+159 965) both inside and outside Kuwait.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs wishes all citizens smooth procedures, safe travels, and a pleasant return to the country.
