The Supreme Committee to Investigate the Kuwaiti Citizenship has taken a significant step by revoking and annulling the citizenship of 930 individuals, in preparation for presenting their cases to the Cabinet.
The Ministry of Interior announced that the Committee convened on Thursday and made the decision to revoke the Kuwaiti citizenship of 930 individuals. This action is subject to final approval and will be submitted to the Cabinet for further review.
On October 31, the committee revoked the citizenship of 489 individuals, setting a new record for the largest single nationality revocation, surpassing the previous record set on September 20, when 112 individuals had their citizenship annulled.
No official statistics are available on the total number of nationality revocations since the committee began its work in early March, when Kuwaiti authorities launched a campaign aimed at revoking citizenships for various reasons, primarily related to fraud. By the end of September, unofficial estimates suggested that over 2,000 individuals had lost their citizenship, with some cases still pending formal decrees.
Kuwait’s Interior Minister, Sheikh Fahad Yusuf, emphasized that the nationality revocations are aimed at individuals and their dependents who obtained citizenship without fulfilling the legal requirements, particularly those who never received an official decree. He pointed out that some members of previous governments had bypassed legal procedures by approving citizenship applications without awaiting the formal decree.
In a statement to a local newspaper, Sheikh Fahad Yusuf explained that those whose citizenships were revoked did not contest the committee’s decisions, as they were based on clear evidence and proper documentation. He emphasized that the process of nationality revocation would continue, stating: “We are still at the beginning,” and assured that revocations would proceed only after thorough examination and verification of all cases.
