Where i can get trust service car/shop in kuwait?
In my 8 years in Kuwait I haven't found a single car service shop that I would trust. I ended up doing most of the maintenance myself, and hoping for the best when I need help. Read More

Married Couple in Kuwait by Jake2019
Hi Everyone, I just want to ask regarding Kuwait laws governing legal expat couples here in Kuwait. Me and my wife works for the same company and when we tried to request for liveout approval, the management refused it even after 3 appeals with ...
I am not sure I follow? There is absolutely nothing preventing you two to live together as a couple if you are legally married. So your company policy is against the law, but it all depends if this is written in the contract you have signed. If ... Read More

What area do you suggest for living?? by Ahmed_Abdelkader
Hi guys.. I will be moving soon to Kuwait with my family where I will work in Al Ardia area near the Avenues Mall. After viewing goole maps and searching dozens of real estate ads for rentals, I am quite confused what area might be convenient for ...
