Hello

Where in Kuwait can I purchase print magazines in English? Such as The Economist, Newsweek etc

They used to be available at select TSC branches, but I can't seem to find them anymore. Such a shame!

Discussion Why are we all becoming antisocial?

16 Upvotes

I'm sure you have noticed how antisocial people have become. And I'm talking about myself too. I find it very inconvenient when someone wants to make plans with me. If I do go out, all I could think about is when am I going back home and be alone. I feel like that's the case for a lot or people. People don't take the time and effort to meet new people anymore and grow their circle. They can barely keep up with the one or two friends they have. Friendship break apart very easily. I KNOW people weren't like that in the past at all. Is it the social media? Are the people talking to us on tiktoks and real making us feel like we are talking to people and so we feel like we socialized? I really wonder🥹

Ask Kuwait Kuwait’s New Freelancing Rules for Expats

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone!
Could someone please explain the new 51–49 profit sharing rule and the recently implemented freelancing regulations in Kuwait, particularly for expats?
Do these rules apply to all types of online businesses as well? For example, people earning through YouTube, online trading, or even providing online tuition?
I was also interested in freelancing as a student to earn some money online, so I’d like to understand whether expats are allowed to do this under the new regulations and what the requirements are.
I’d really appreciate it if someone could clarify how these rules affect expats who want to earn money online. Thank you!

Ask Kuwait URGENT A girl arrived in Kuwait from India 3 days ago, and her manager is demanding sexual favors in exchange for fixing her visa stuff. What can she do?

146 Upvotes

I’m posting this on behalf of a female friend who came to Kuwait on 11 October for employment.
Today, she was supposed to go for her medical examination. I don’t know the specific details, but all I know is that she came to me sobbing, saying how her manager fed her some bullshit about how her master’s degree and paperwork aren’t correct, so the visa she came in on isn’t valid, and she needs to get a new visa by paying 400 KD.
She obviously said she doesn’t have that kind of money, and he replied by saying he could pay it off if she did him some sexual favors.
What the actual fuck is wrong with people, I will never know, but I have zero network or connections to anyone who can help with situations like this.
Please, anyone who has even some kind of connection to the Indian Embassy, please contact me.
I’m only 19 myself and have no idea how to navigate this situation.

Ask Kuwait Difficulty finding employment

Hello guys, I am 34m, with wife and 3 year old child living with me in salmiya, recently I have lost my employment due to downsizing in my company. For a while due to the market conditions my pay was not quite enough and we are living month to month. Since 2 weeks I have tried every avenue, online portal, walking office to office with a cv in hand and have not gotten a single response. The upcoming month I don’t know how I will pay rent, or feed my family. My iqama also expires 3rd November. I was an IT project manager and have worked building softwares for various companies. Can anyone point me in a direction where I could get something work wise.

It’s really scary for me right now. Any help would be appreciated.

Local Any Carrom Players in Kuwait Up for a Challenge?

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

Quick question: Are there any Carrom players here in Kuwait who consider themselves pretty good at the game?

A few of us are working on a YouTube series where people compete against each other in different games, and we're currently putting together a Carrom episode.

We've got a really strong player lined up, and thought it would be fun to find someone from the community who's willing to challenge him.

You don't have to be a professional or anything. Just someone who enjoys Carrom and wouldn't mind a little friendly competition.

It'll be filmed in a studio here in Kuwait, so you'd need to be comfortable appearing on camera.

Anyone interested? Or know someone who's ridiculously good at Carrom?

Discussion Brining medicne from egypt

1 Upvotes

​

Hi everyone,

I have a question about bringing prescription medication from Egypt to Kuwait, and I'm hoping someone with experience or knowledge of Kuwait's customs regulations can help.

My wife needs Xolair 150 mg/ml pre-filled syringes, and she requires two injections every month.

The medication is available through the healthcare system in Kuwait, but the cost is quite high:

- Kuwait: Around 330 KD for two injections.

- With patient support: Around 270 KD for two injections.

- Egypt: Around 70–80 KD for two injections.

Alhamdulillah, we have received some financial support in Kuwait, but the price difference is still significant. Buying the medication in Egypt could save us a considerable amount over the course of a year.

My question is: if I travel to Egypt and purchase the medication legally from a pharmacy, can I bring 12–24 pre-filled syringes (enough for 6–12 months of treatment) with me in my hand luggage when returning to Kuwait?

A few important details:

- The medication is for my wife, who has a valid prescription.

- It is for personal medical use, not for resale.

- I understand that Xolair is not a prohibited medication, but I don't know whether Kuwait restricts the quantity that can be brought into the country.

- Since it is an injectable biologic medication, it also needs to be kept within the required temperature range.

Would Kuwait Customs allow this quantity with a prescription and medical report, or would I need prior approval from the Ministry of Health? Is there a specific limit on the number of injections I can bring?

I'm particularly interested in hearing from anyone who has brought prescription medication into Kuwait in larger quantities or has dealt with the Ministry of Health or Kuwait Customs regarding this.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Ask Kuwait Visa Issuance, folks please help

0 Upvotes

Hi Folks,

I would appreciate your advice, especially from those working in manpower recruitment, HR, or related fields.
Have you ever experienced issuing a visa for an overseas candidate and later discovering incorrect details,
such as:
Missing middle name
Wrong spelling of the applicant's name
Other personal information errors

Is it necessary to cancel the visa and apply for a new one, or is there an option to amend the details on the existing visa?

My concern is that if we cancel the visa, we may have to wait for the 3-month period before applying again for the same person.
Has anyone experienced this before? Is it possible to reissue a corrected visa immediately for the same applicant after cancellation?

Thank you in advance for your guidance and insights.

I’m a Kuwaiti citizen with a home-based business registered under Bab 5 (Chapter Five). I want to close my business and cancel my commercial license.

What is the exact procedure for cancelling a home-business license?

Do I need to publish a notice in a newspaper?

What documents do I need to bring to the Kuwait Business Centre?
