Can I register my testing and vaccine credentials on Mosafer?

Your testing and vaccine credentials cannot be registered through the Mosafer platform.

Please note that Kuwait has lifted most COVID-19 related entry restrictions from 1 May 2022 and has lifted the quarantine, testing and vaccination requirements for all arrivals. The country is also permitting the entry of non-Kuwaiti passengers who are not vaccinated against COVID-19 as of February.

All arrivals and returnees in Kuwait can download and install the Shlonik (iOS, Android) application on their personal devices, which will be used only to follow up on COVID-19 positive cases. As of now, the Kuwait-Mosafer and Belsalamah platforms have been suspended until further notice.

For your COVID vaccination credentials, you need to register with Kuwait’s Ministry of Health via the Immune app. If you’re vaccinated with a vaccine recognized in Kuwait, you will receive a ‘green’ status. Those who have been vaccinated with vaccines not approved in Kuwait may also receive the green status if they have also had a third shot or booster shot of an approved vaccine.

A green status on the Immune app is not mandatory to visit public places. All people regardless of vaccination status are now allowed to access all public places. Wearing of masks indoors/outdoors is now optional. However, symptomatic COVID-19 patients and those who have had close contact with a COVID-19 patient must still wear masks.
