By 12 Midnight, Shops, Restaurants, And Pharmacies Will Be Closed

The Assistant Undersecretary of the Ministry of Interior for Public Security, Operations and Traffic Affairs, Major General Abdullah Al-Rajeeb, has instructed security directors in Kuwait's six governorates to implement the Kuwait Municipality's decision to close associations, restaurants, and pharmacies in private residential areas after midnight.

As a result of the decision, work can be limited to the main association in the area, as well as shops, restaurants, and pharmacies located inside. This decision also applies to food trucks located in residential areas after midnight, and restaurants located in association branches that only work to deliver orders without opening the restaurant, reports Al Jarida. Kuwait Municipality Administrative Decision No. 3212/2022 specifies the working hours of commercial stores in private residential areas, including cooperative societies, public transport stations, commercial blocks, and other stores, except cooperative societies' central markets and pharmacies.

In stores with more than one front and a separate service door, orders may only be delivered without direct selling or on-site delivery, especially in parking lots with all doors closed. The decision also requires obtaining the Ministry of Interior’s approval for any request for an exception to the decision. In addition to enhancing public safety, these measures will help Kuwait adjust its demographics.
