07 September 2023 Kuwait

'Violators of the residency law will be cornered, and inspection campaigns will continue to arrest and deport them,' said an informed security source. The Ministry of Interior will not allow the presence of such violators on Kuwaiti soil”, reports Al-Qabas daily. In a press statement, the source said, “The train of security campaigns has started and will not stop. It will not exclude a site from inspection, as there is no place for residency violators in Kuwait, which will include even raiding the farms, pens, desert, and abandoned areas. A three-pronged plan was drawn up to corner residency violators, based on implementing impromptu campaigns, monitoring marginal workers, and sorting out specialized security teams to catch those who are in hiding. In this way, Kuwait will be without residency violators within two years.”

In accordance with the directives issued by Sheikh Talal Al-Kaled, First Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Interior, it is imperative to pursue residency and informal workers round the clock in order to purify the labor market and deport those who violate its laws. He affirmed that the security campaigns against residency violators and marginal workers will continue in all parts of the country on a larger scale and with a different approach than in previous years, so there will be no tolerance for those who violate the law.

According to the source, "We are serious about fighting illegal workers and those who violate residency laws.". We will not allow them to work in light of their lack of respect for the laws. At the same time, we welcome those who want to change their status and who meet the legal conditions. The security departments will deal with whoever approaches them with all respect. The security campaigns that were carried out in most areas of the country during the last period represented an implementation of the security plan that was drawn up, as a security cordon was imposed on those areas to monitor all violators of the residency law, and to monitor marginal workers and those who were reported as absconding.

Security teams were distributed throughout the country to check residents' documents in markets and shops in line with the established security plan. These campaigns will continue to be held in all areas to arrest all violators.” The source affirmed the continuous coordination with the relevant state authorities to implement the plan to modify the demographic composition and give Kuwaitization the highest priority in parallel with the security plan to purify the country from the phenomena of visa-trade and random labor, announcing the closure of hundreds of fake companies and the punishment of their owners during the last period.

After surrendering themselves to the Ministry of Interior, those who are deported will be deported to their countries within four days after completing the deportation procedures. In order to pursue violators after extensive closures of the raided area, the security campaign plan relies on the elements of surprise, firmness, and rapid action. According to this source, many violators and marginal workers were arrested as a result of this strategy, which prevented them from escaping.
