Kuwait Introduces Multiple-Trip Exit Permits for Expatriate Workers

Kuwait has started a new service called multiple-trip exit permits for workers from other countries.

Before, these workers needed permission every time they wanted to leave and come back to Kuwait.

Now, they can get a permit that lets them travel multiple times within a certain period.

This makes things easier for both the workers and their employers.

The permits can be applied for online through special websites or apps.

The government says this new system will make things faster and less complicated.

Starting next year, all expatriate workers in the private sector will need to get permission from their employers before they can leave the country.

The goal is to make sure everything is fair and well-organised.
