Kuwaiti authorities have extended the deadline to register newborns in the national civil information system from the usual period to 120 days after the birth. Sheikh Fahad Al-Yousef, First Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Interior, announced this change to reduce stress on new parents. The move gives families more time to handle paperwork without rushing while adjusting to a new baby. The new ministerial decision applies to children born in Kuwait. It replaces older rules to better match current parenting challenges. The government wants every child registered properly without pressuring parents during early months. However, other registration deadlines remain unchanged. Kuwaiti citizens must register within 30 days of returning to Kuwait. Citizens of Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries have a 30-day window after arrival. Expatriates must register within 30 days of getting their residency permits. Missing these deadlines can lead to fines between KD 2,000 and KD 3,000. There is an option to settle by paying KD 100 plus KD 5 for each day of delay, up to KD 2,000. These rules help protect children's rights and keep national data accurate. Authorities stress that proper documentation ensures children can access important services like education and healthcare. Parents are encouraged to use the Sahel app and online portals to track registrations and prepare documents like marriage certificates and passports well before the new 120-day deadline.
