The Interior Ministry recently conducted a comprehensive inspection of bachelor housing in Bneid Al-Ghar, resulting in the relocation of several expatriates residing under Article 20 to government shelters.

The inspection revealed that many expatriates on domestic worker visas (Article 20) were living in bachelor accommodations across Bneid Al-Ghar. According to Kuwaiti regulations, expat domestic workers are required to reside with their Kuwaiti sponsors, where they are employed as domestic workers.

These individuals were found living in apartment buildings, violating housing regulations. Considering the humanitarian implications, the affected workers were transferred to a labor shelter, ensuring they have access to all necessary amenities.
