Driving on toursit visa

I am an American visiting Kuwait for the summer on a tourist visa. I have an American licence as well as an international licence. Will I be able to drive here using my parents’ cars who are residents of Kuwait?

Name withheld

Answer:
Yes, you can because according to the law visitors who have an international licence are allowed to drive but you have to remember that if you ever get a permanent residence you will not be able to drive unless you get a Kuwaiti driving licence.

Also civil idSrivi | 5/19/2011 12:20:43 PM Also keep copy of Civil id of parents, passport copy of parents, for verification of ownership of vehicle and citation issue, in case of accidents.
Only International License.Srivi | 5/19/2011 12:11:24 PM As per Law, in any country, only the own country license is accepted for license. But, International License is accepted all over the world traffic ministry. So, International license is accepted to drive inside kuwait, during visit visa period. But, American license is not accepted for kuwait traffic dept. Take care. Keep the following documents always along with you, while driving, visit visa original, passport original, international driving license, car daftar copy, car insurance papers, vehicle registration documents, etc. Then, no need to worry for any checking. Follow traffic rules, thats all. Take care of rash driving of other drivers.
