I have been in Kuwait for 5 years. On my work permit (izl-amal) my designation is mechanic and the salary is KD 195/-. I’m not a degree holder. I would like to know if I’m eligible for a driving licence?
Is my designation on the Traffic Department’s exemption list?

Answer: No, you can’t get a driving licence because mechanics are not on the exemption list nor do you meet the following conditions for getting a driving licence:
1. Must have been in Kuwait for at least two years at the time of application.
2. Must be a university graduate.
3. Must be earning at least KD 400/- a month.
So you see, you meet only the first condition and not the other two.

riskSrivi | 12/11/2011 12:12:12 PM hi sumeet, as a dependant visa holder, she is not eligible to apply for license. if you have school going kids, and husband should be eligible, for driving license, then wife can apply for driving license, using children in exceptional cases. receptionist, is not in exemption list. you cannot get just for name sake. transfer of company visa to dependant visa, pressure from company is no way connected to license. she cannot get license for receptionist. dont take risk. company visa is for shoun formality,

DRIVING LICENSE Sumeet | 12/10/2011 1:12:59 PM My wife has been In Kuwait for more than 2 years as a dependent on me.She is a degree holder as well. I wanted to know whether she is eligible for a license since she is a dependant on me. If not she is currently working in a company with salary KD 400 but they have a vacancy in showoon for receptionist. If I transfer her to the company as a receptionist would she be eligible for a driving license. I'm confused since it's a huge risk as the company is pressuring her to transfer as soon as possible.
