Kuwaiti: Pre travel biometric registration made mandatory as Kuwait ends fingerprinting at borders
Kuwait has suspended biometric fingerprinting at all airports, land, and sea borders to reduce congestion and speed up travel. Citizens must now complete registration at National Identity or Criminal Evidence Centres, while expatriates can register at designated Criminal Evidence Centres in their governorates. Travellers are urged to complete pre-travel biometrics to avoid delays, with status verifiable via the Sahel app.
