A Friendly Guide for Kuwait Mosafer App

“Nothing in life is to be feared; it is only to be understood. Now is the time to understand more, so that we may fear less.”

– Marie Curie-

Kuwait Airways issued a set of guidelines for departing/incoming passengers on Saturday, January 2 with the resumption of commercial flights to and from Kuwait International Airport. Both entering and exiting passengers from/to Kuwait must register on kuwaitmosafer.com. Kuwaiti travelers will also need to purchase health insurance and sign a waiver form via the Kuwait Mosafer website.

Kuwait will be the region’s first airport to use technology to create a single platform that will assist travelers in meeting COVID-19 travel requirements ahead of time, eliminating airport queues and other delays. Health declarations, guidance, and checklists from the Kuwait DCGA, Ministry of Health, and Ministry of Interior are all included in the portal.

The app was created with three main goals in mind: improving awareness and facilitating contactless procedures, as well as protecting the health of passengers and airport employees. It assists passengers in completing post-COVID-19 travel requirements, reducing queues and disruptions. It also assists airport operators in overcoming the obstacles of reduced capacity due to physical distancing by allowing them to book in advance for services including check-in appointments.
