I am a civil engineer working in Kuwait, I have a valid driving license and my Iqama is based on the Civil Engineering Profession. My driving license is going to expire on 25/01/2019, but my Iqama is valid up to 22/1/2020 and I am a member of KSE. My question is that, do I need any NOC from KSE to renew my driving license. Please help me regarding this matter.Name withheld Answer: Since the validity of the driving licence is tied to the validity of your residence permit, it is our considered opinion that you may not need a No-Objection Certificate (NOC) to renew your driving licence. We make this proposition in the assumption that you produced an NOC before you had your residence permit which is expiring in 2020 stamped in your passpor
