I have worked in my company for 3 years now and I want to take release but my visa is government contract visa. Can I get another company on this visa and also possible for them to change it to private visa.

Answer: If you were originally brought to Kuwait by your current company on a project visa, the law say that you can transfer only to another project visa of the same sponsor or another project visa of a different sponsor if the current project has been completed or to the general file of the current sponsor. In the case of the latter transfer you may be lucky to get a transfer to the private sector if your sponsor has no objection. In each of these scenarios mentioned, different fees are charged to effect the change involved
