After nearly two decades, Kuwait has ended its visa ban on Pakistani citizens, opening the door for thousands of skilled and semi-skilled workers. If you’re a Pakistani job seeker, this is the best time in years to apply for high-demand positions in Kuwait’s growing economy.


What Changed in 2025?

Kuwait officially lifted its ban on Pakistani visas in June 2025, following strong diplomatic talks and demand for workers in construction, healthcare, IT, hospitality, and transport.
Key changes:

  • Skilled, semi-skilled, and even some low-skilled workers now eligible
  • New quotas for sectors like nursing, civil engineering, and logistics
  • Streamlined application process for work and dependent visas

Why This Is a Huge Opportunity

  • Kuwait’s job market is booming: major infrastructure and hospital projects
  • Legal migration now easier: clear pathways for both workers and their families
  • Demand for Pakistani talent: preference for experienced, English- or Arabic-speaking applicants

What You Need to Apply

  • Valid Pakistani passport
  • Offer letter from a Kuwait-registered employer (for work visa)
  • Educational/professional certificates (for skilled roles)
  • Police clearance and health check (as per Kuwait rules)
