When and how can apply for Renewal, Re-issue of Passport
Q. 1: When and how one can apply for Renewal/Re-issue of Passport?
Ans:
In view of the Government of Kuwait stipulation that a minimum one year plus validity of Passport is mandatory for affixing/renewal of residency (lqama) in Kuwait, Passports may be renewed up to 18 months before its expiry without assigning any special reason.
Passport renewal applications shall be accepted even before this period, for valid reasons to be given in writing,
e.g. Exhaustion of pages due to frequent travels,
Change/correction in personal particulars,
Splitting name in to Given Name and Surname where the Surname column is blank in the current Passport,
Change in marital status, Change in appearance/signature,
Minor/major damage (explanation in Annexure-F required), or
Loss of valid Passport (Lost Report from local Police authorities and
explanation in Annexure-F required).
