Kuwait City, 14 July 2025 – India has switched on a full e-visa service for Kuwaiti citizens, turning what used to be a paper chase into a quick online task.
Announced by India’s Ambassador to Kuwait, Dr Adarsh Swaika, the move is set to boost tourism, business, health travel, and cultural links between the two nations.
All you need now is a phone and an internet connection. Upload a passport scan, fill in a short form, pay the fee, and you’re done. On arrival in India, a fast fingerprint scan replaces the old desk-side paperwork. Less waiting, more doing.
Planning a food crawl in Delhi, sealing a deal in Mumbai, or booking a wellness retreat in Kerala? Pick the e-visa that suits you:
Most applications clear in three to four days; a rush option is there if you’re in a hurry. Frequent visitors can now grab a five-year tourist visa, cutting repeat paperwork and costs.
“It used to take two weeks just to gather documents,” says Ahmed Al-Sharif, a Kuwaiti entrepreneur. “Now I wrap it up during lunch and had my approval in three days.”
More than 10,000 Kuwaitis head to India each year for business, health care, or study. Officials expect that number to climb sharply with the new system.
Data travels through encrypted servers, and biometric checks at the border keep identity fraud at bay. You get speed without trading away privacy.
Unsure about a step? The India eVisa portal offers walk-through guides and live chat support, plain answers, no tech jargon. First-timers and frequent flyers both breeze through.
If the rollout runs smoothly, India may extend the same digital gateway to other Gulf nations, making subcontinent trips easier across the region.
This isn’t just another web form. It’s a shift that removes queues, speeds approvals, and sparks fresh links between India and Kuwait. If India’s on your radar, the hardest part now might be choosing where to go first.
