The ministry pointed out the Danish woman arrived at the airport accompanied by her daughter and applied for a tourist visa. The officials at the airport discovered the validity of one of the passports was less than six months and the extension was handwritten, which violates the terms and conditions for entry visa.

In the meantime, the Danish Foreign Ministry was contacted and the latter confirmed the validity of the handwritten extension and immediately a tourist visa for them issued. But what the woman uttered and circulated in the social media, offensive to Kuwait will not be tolerated and that a lawsuit has been initiated against her because the airport passports officers dealt with the mother and her daughter in line with the law.
