Close The Bank Account Of Deportees When They Leave The Country

16 November 2021 Kuwait

Banks are asked to close the accounts of the deportees when they leave the country, local Arabic daily Al-Rai reported. However, the report added that the lack of clear procedures in this may lead to the exploitation of these accounts in ways that violate the law, and that this is not necessarily done through the owners of these accounts.

The General Administration of Residency Affairs and the banks together need to develop solutions and find a mechanism to ensure that the open bank accounts of the deportee are not used in illegal activities.

However, the report quoting banking sources made it clear that it is not easy to apply this mechanism to the accounts of all deportees immediately, as these accounts may be linked to various credits or debts that do not require their presence in Kuwait.
