Disclaimer: This site has been first put up 15 years ago. Since then I would probably do a couple things differently, but because I've noticed this site had been linked from news outlets, PhD theses and peer rewieved papers and because I really hate the concept of "digital dark age" I've decided to put it back up. There's no chance it can produce any harm now.

Applicants are required to complete a visa application form and provide passport-size photographs and copies of their valid passports and Kuwaiti residency permits. We have been told that gratis "emergency transit visas" will be issued to individual applicants, provided they have valid travel documents. There have been no requests for assistance in obtaining Saudi visas Kuwaiti immigration reports all quiet at the main POE on the Saudi border this morning. There are no "stranded" Americans. The Consular team from Dhahran that was at Khafji on the Saudi side of the border to assist Americans left yesterday after we agreed their presence was no longer required. We are in close touch with Kuwait Immigration and they have our emergency contact numbers if any Americans do need assistance. The remaining two Amcits who had contacted the Embassy for departure assistance are no longer interested. They have made their arrangements. No pending cases. ---------- Management ---------- Nothing to Report 3. COMMENTS: None 4. STATUS OF PENDING REQUESTS: n/a JONES
