Private Sector Work Permit (Article 18)

إقامة المادة 18

The Article 18 visa is Kuwait's primary work permit for private sector employment. Your employer applies through the Public Authority for Manpower (PAM) with your qualifications and contract details. There's no fixed salary threshold — your pay must match the market rate for the role. The visa is granted for 1-3 years and is renewable.

The Article 17 visa covers government and public sector employment in Kuwait. Government positions typically offer higher job security, structured pay scales, and additional benefits like housing allowances, education allowances for children, and annual leave entitlements that often exceed private sector norms.
