Poland to Kuwait visa requirements
Polish ordinary passport holders need a visa for Kuwait, but they qualify for a Kuwait eVisa applied for online before travel (visa-on-arrival is also available for eligible nationals). Apply through the official Ministry of Interior portal, pay roughly KWD 3, and carry the approval confirmation with you. Kuwait is not visa-free for Polish citizens and is not part of the Schengen Area, so the Schengen 90/180 rule and ETIAS do not apply. Poland is one of the roughly 53 nationalities Kuwait makes eligible for both an electronic visa (eVisa) and a visa on arrival. The recommended route for tourists is the eVisa: you create an account on Kuwait's official Ministry of Interior portal (kuwaitvisa.moi.gov.kw), submit passport and trip details, pay the fee (about KWD 3, roughly USD 10), and receive an electronic approval to present at the border. The eVisa permits a tourist stay of up to 30 days per entry, with the authorization typically valid for 30 to 90 days from issue (longer multi-entry validity exists for some categories). Visa on arrival at Kuwait International Airport remains an alternative for eligible Polish travelers, but the eVisa is preferred because it confirms eligibility before you fly and reduces airport delays. Your passport must be valid for at least six months beyond your intended stay, and you should carry proof of onward/return travel and accommodation. Always confirm current rules on the official portal before booking, as Gulf states adjust visa channels periodically.
