KUWAIT CITY, May 20: The Ministry of Interior has launched an awareness campaign entitled, “You Can Leave the Country or Amend Your Legal Status,” for all those who violated the Residency Law. The ministry advised violators to visit the Residency Affairs Department in their respective areas to complete the necessary procedures to leave the country or legalize their status. Last March, the ministry started implementing the amnesty to allow those who violated the abovementioned laws to leave the country without paying fines or legalize their status upon payment of fines. It has been reported that the number of violators was estimated at 120,000 before the implementation of the amnesty and a large number of these violators have benefited from the humanitarian gesture since March.
