Airports at both ends

Kuwait visa rules for Indian passport holders
Kuwait does not offer a simple online eVisa for Indian tourists. Entry typically requires a sponsored visit visa — arranged by a Kuwaiti citizen, company or hotel — or, for workers, an employment visa through a Kuwaiti employer. Indians holding certain Gulf residency permits (UAE, Bahrain, etc.) may have alternative options. It is essential to confirm current visa rules before booking, as Kuwait's policy toward Indian nationals differs from other Gulf states. See /visas for up-to-date guidance and confirm with the Kuwait embassy or your travel agent before booking.
What to expect in Kuwait City
Kuwait City blends gleaming modern towers along the waterfront with the bustling traditional Souk Al-Mubarakiya, one of the Gulf's oldest markets. Best visiting months are October through March, when temperatures are pleasant (18–28 °C). Summers are extremely hot (44 °C+). Kuwait is a dry country — alcohol is prohibited nationwide. Indian food is widely available given the large expatriate community. The Kuwaiti dinar is among the world's highest-valued currencies (≈ 1 KWD ≈ ₹270), so budget accordingly for all expenses.
