News Reports on Kuwaitis’ Entry to the U.S. Denied

The Embassy is aware of news reports of Kuwaiti citizens being denied entry into the United States.

The decision on whether an individual is allowed to enter the United States is made at the port of entry by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP). We refer you to CBP for more information.

Those who are denied entry to the United States are free to apply for a new visa at their convenience.

Tens of thousands of Kuwaitis travel to and enter the U.S. every year.

For more information about the entry process is available on the CBP website:
