Kuwait Tourist Visa - Cost?
I'm a U.S. citizen and may be interested in visiting Kuwait for one day as a tourist. What is the cost of the visa issued on arrival?
Thanks......

Free visa on arrival for US passports. Check out https://en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Kuwait.

No unfortunately its not free, unless it has changed in the last few years.
The guidelines are at https://www.dgca.gov.kw/en/traveller.../visa-services
There is the regular visa desk and the VIP. I don't remember the actual cost but I think it was 5KD regular and 10KD VIP.

The US State Dept provides the following:
http://travel.state.gov/content/pass...ry/kuwait.html
Tourist visas are required for U.S. citizens traveling to Kuwait and can be obtained free of charge at the airport. Passports must be valid for at least six months from the date of entry into Kuwait; otherwise, you may be denied entry.
