Kuwait is located in the northwestern Gulf region and is a wealthy constitutional monarchy. Out of the 4.5 million people living in the country, 3.2 million are expat workers and their families. The largest foreign population is from India and Egypt. Most employment is found in the oil and gas industry, shipbuilding, finance, cement, construction, food processing, and fertilizer production.
If you are looking for employment in Kuwait, you will need to receive a formal offer of employment in the country from a sponsoring employer. The employer is required to apply for the No Objection Certificate (NOC) on behalf of the foreign worker they are wanting to hire. This process will allow the worker to relocate to Kuwait. Contact EmployMeGulf for help finding the perfect job opportunity and beginning the process of relocating to The Gulf.
Once an expat worker relocates to Kuwait, the sponsoring employer will apply for the Iqama with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The foreign worker will be required to receive a medical exam and be tested for HIV/AIDS, hepatitis, and tuberculosis, obtain a police clearance, get a passport-style photo, and have a passport valid for at least six months.
Once a residency visa to Kuwait is given, the employee must file an application for a Kuwaiti Civil ID. Contact EmployMeGulf today and begin living your dream of working in Kuwait. There are many opportunities available for you and your family in The Gulf region. Contact them today!
