Kuwait has introduced an online residency status service for former citizens through the Sahel government app, expanding digital access to a recently introduced long-term residency scheme. The service targets individuals eligible under Article 7 bis, the new personal sponsorship residency category covering those whose Kuwaiti citizenship was withdrawn, or those who acquired citizenship through dependency and have regained their original foreign nationality or obtained another nationality.
The Public Authority for Civil Information (PACI) launched the service on Sunday, enabling eligible applicants to complete the process electronically instead of relying on in-person procedures.
