A Kuwaiti Father

15 years ago

Hello,

I have a friend that is American and her mother married a Kuwaiti man through "an informal Islamic marriage" in the U.S.

Unfortunately, she lost the proof of the marriage. I was wondering if my friend is eligible for citizenship in Kuwait or not?

I am aware of the decree that if someone's father is Kuwaiti, they automatically get citizenship. What about someone who doesn't have proof of marriage?

Do you know if they are eligible or not? If so, what are the procedures of such a process?

Thank you
