What are the requirements for nikah in kuwait

To get married (nikah) in Kuwait, specific documentation and steps are required.

The marriage process in Kuwait involves several key requirements that must be fulfilled by both partners. First, both individuals must undergo pre-marital medical tests to check for certain diseases. A No-Objection Certificate (NOC) is needed if one partner is a foreign national marrying a Kuwaiti citizen. The marriage contract (nikah) must be signed in front of a Marriage Registrar at the Ministry of Justice, where both partners and the wali (if applicable) are present with the necessary documents. Here’s a concise list of required documentation:
– Original valid passports for both partners
– Recent Civil ID cards (if applicable)
– Medical test reports for both partners
– No-Objection Certificate from the foreign partner’s embassy
– Two male witnesses (if applicable) during the signing of the marriage contract
– Official translations of any non-Arabic documents, if necessary
It’s crucial to verify all details with local authorities as laws can change frequently.
