KUWAIT CITY, Dec 27: The Interior Ministry’s General Department of Information Systems, in coordination with the General Department of Residency, launched two new e-services dedicated to issuing and transferring Article-18 residency.

The new services, accessible on the Ministry’s website, aim to facilitate the procedures of issuing, renewing, and transferring the residency of employees in the civil sector under Article 18. They also cover the transfer of the residency of a civil sector employee from worker residency to temporary residency under Article 14, according to a statement from the Ministry. The launching of the two e-services falls in the framework of the Ministry’s efforts to spare the time and effort of reviewers, and speed up the quest for integrated e-government, it added. (KUNA)
