United Kingdom EVW Requirements for Kuwaiti Citizens

If you are planning to visit the UK as a national of Kuwait, you will find the online UK EVW application process extremely straightforward and easy to complete.

Applying electronically for a UK visa waiver means Kuwaiti citizens no longer need to visit an embassy or consulate as part of the application process.

The EVW application form includes questions related to Kuwaitis’ basic personal and travel information, such as full name, contact details, date of birth, nationality, and expected entry and exit dates.

After completing the UK visa waiver application form you simply must submit it for processing and approval. Once approved, the visa waiver to the UK will be automatically linked to the Kuwaiti passport.

If you are traveling to the UK for purposes other than tourism, business, medical reasons, or study, you are advised to contact your nearest UK embassy or consulate. In Kuwait, the UK embassy is located in Kuwait City.

If you are a Kuwaiti citizen planning to apply for a UK EVW, it is advised that you read through the visa conditions for Kuwaiti citizens when traveling abroad. This provides detailed advice regarding the rules and regulations for travel.

Important: Before beginning your online form, ensure you check exactly what is required to support your application. This is in order to avoid mistakes, as any errors on the form can potentially hold up processing or even lead to rejection of your application.

You will require the following information to fill in the UK EVW form:

• An up-to-date Kuwaiti passport, which must be valid for at least 6 months from the intended date of entry into the UK
• A valid form of payment, such as a credit or debit card, in order to pay the EVW processing fee
• A current email address, required by officials to send the approved UK visa waiver and any other relevant notification.

Kuwaiti visitors are also required to provide additional information from their passport, including passport number, date of issue, and date of expiry.

There will be questions regarding your trip to the UK, including flight details, dates and times of arrival in the UK, and the address of the accommodation once you are in the country.

If you hold a UK EVW, it will authorize entry to the UK via any major international airport within the country.

If the UK visa waiver application is rejected, citizens of Kuwait can apply for a new EVW.

Ensure you enter the information into the form carefully and double-check it, as any errors can result in rejection of the application as it cannot be edited once it is submitted.

If you lose your Kuwaiti passport or it is damaged or stolen before you leave for the UK, you should reapply for a visa waiver using your new passport details. This is because the EVW is automatically and digitally linked to the passport used during the application process.
