KUWAIT CITY, Dec 22: Government sources have confirmed that within the framework of humanitarian initiatives for the wives of Kuwaitis whose nationalities have been revoked, efforts are underway to study the necessary procedures to address their situations. These measures aim to ensure that they do not face obstacles in various aspects of life.
As part of the plans under consideration, it is expected that Kuwaiti wives whose nationality has been withdrawn under Article Eight will be issued passports identical to the standard Kuwaiti passport (blue). However, the nationality field on the passport will indicate their status as either “wife of a Kuwaiti,” “widow of a Kuwaiti,” or “divorcee of a Kuwaiti.”
The sources further clarified that issuing such passports requires compliance with international accreditation procedures to maintain the classification and credibility of the Kuwaiti passport. Relevant authorities are actively working on the necessary steps to implement this initiative.
