US passport holders can obtain an eVisa before travel or a visa on arrival at Kuwait International Airport (KWI). The tourist eVisa is applied for at evisa.moi.gov.kw and costs KWD 3 (about $10). It allows a single entry for up to 90 days within a 3-month validity. Processing takes 1 to 3 working days. Visa on arrival costs the same KWD 3, payable at the kiosk before immigration. Passport must be valid for at least 6 months beyond the date of entry. A return or onward ticket and proof of hotel reservation are required.
