It shouldn't be a problem,I am in the same situation, and been here for 5years, never posed a problem for me. Because they only have one basis of information for you, and that is your civil ID. They won't ask for your passport and civil ID together here. Unless you book a ticket,but then booking a ticket travel agencies will only ask your passport, not both. Any transactions done inside Kuwait, it's always the Civil ID nothing else matters.
My name started with 'CH' like in Chris, PACI translator somehow read it as 'SHREE' with the 'SHEEN' character.

As they say my name and yours are 'lost in translation' lol. I been in and out of the country multiple times, never caused a problem even on immigration at the airport. Wish you all the best Sha Pau.

Hey Sha Pau, I've re read your post and my reply, I think I got it wrong. I was referring to mospelled name in Civil ID versus name in passport. While you were referring to entry visa, in that case I don't know the answer.  There is an opd post about that mispelled name on visa somewhere here. Sorry for the confusion.

Dear Members,

i agree before it was not an issue if there is a spelling mistake in the visa. But the different country has different rules. Especially in Phillipinnes, the embassy of Kuwait is very strict now and they will not stamp the visa if even a single alphabet is missing or mistake.

you can send the visa back to your employer here in Kuwait and they will cancel it and reissue you the new visa with correct spelling|(Same to same as on passport).

Thx

My name is incorrect on my visa and Nigeria embassy rejected it. Is it possible for Kuwait Embassy to correct the name ?

@Chukwufranklin20000

Your name will not be incorrect. In Kuwait, they write your name with father name which looks different from written in your passport. If this is the case, you can explain to embassy. If it is really incorrect, then you can write to your company in Kuwait, they can contact visa issuing authorities to reissue with correct name.

Best of luck
