Do Canada citizens need a visa for Kuwait?

How long can Canadian citizens stay in Kuwait?

What documents should Canadian travelers carry when entering Kuwait (even after getting an eVisa)?
Upon arrival in Kuwait, Canadians should have their passport and a copy of their approved eVisa ready to present. It’s also recommended to carry hotel reservations of a host address, return or onward flight details, and proof that you have enough funds to cover your stay. If you're entering for business purposes, having a company invitation letter with meeting details can also help support your entry if an officer asks about the reason for your visit.
What are the common reasons a Kuwait eVisa for Canadians may be delayed or refused?
Delays often occur due to passport data entry errors, unclearly uploaded documents, or mismatched travel details (e.g., hotel information not matching the itinerary). Refusals can also occur if the purpose of travel is unclear or if the applicant does not meet the eligibility criteria for that visa type. To reduce risk, double-check your passport number, spelling, and dates before submitting, and ensure your documents are clear, legible, and consistent.
