With the COVID-19 pandemic limiting mobility, many from the Persian Gulf region plan to travel to the USA. To ensure a seamless emigration process, it is crucial to meet all requirements. In this article, I share my personal experience and tips for a successful journey from Kuwait to the USA.
- Visa Application: "Choosing the right visa is the foundation for a successful trip" (US Embassy in Kuwait). Apply for your visa as early as possible; processing time may take up to three months. I applied for a worker visa.
- COVID-19 Testing and Vaccinations: The USA requires a negative COVID-19 test before travel. Get tested at least two weeks before departure, which costs around 50 USD and is widely available in Kuwait.
- Travel Documents: Keep your passport, visa, Green Card (if possessed), and other necessary documents secure to avoid delays during travel.
- Travel Planning: "Plan hassle-free trips with our online travel program" (Kuwait Airways). Regularly check COVID-19 entry conditions and book travel dates in advance.
In conclusion, planning a journey from Kuwait to the USA involves proper visa application, COVID-19 testing and vaccinations, securing travel documents, and advanced travel planning. Enjoy your next adventure with smooth preparation.
