Visa Transfer Failure Due to Company file (Malaf) Block

Posted by akhilesh raj on 7/6/2025 2:06:51 pm

i am sharing my personal experience here.
if the company file is closed and you wants to transfer the visa to new company ,
1. try to talk to your hr or mandoop and know the possibility of opening the company file if there is less chance to open. then go to the shoon
2. my address belongs to farwaniya so i visited abu fatira shoon with the below listed documents

documents for opening an exception complaint (cancellation or transfer)
new, sealed internal printouts.
1 - residence sequence -(from moi general dept. of residency affairs)
2 - resident statement. - (from moi general dept. of residency affairs)
3 - entry and exit movement. (from security systems general directorate- near to jazeera terminal)
4 - security control. (from security systems general directorate- near to jazeera terminal)

. exception request form + opening an exception complaint (cancellation or transfer) from the typists.

. obtaining a username from the unit to which the worker belongs in the work permit.
(for creating user id and opening complaint go through https://labour.manpower.gov.kw/)
. the worker must be present in person

3. if we didn''t complete one year in kuwait the complaint may not be registered through online - in that case. inform this to the officer over there
4. after registration of complaint we will get the date and time for hearing from online portal itself . print out the appointment and go as per the date. explain the situation to officer.
5.next follow-up''s and decisions will know by checking the complaint enquiry from the online portal.


please don''t waste your time and money for vastha.

Need Help Getting KNET Machine for My Laundry Shop

Posted by just wash on 7/5/2025 10:31:01 am

hello everyone,

i am currently running a laundry shop here in kuwait under visa 18. the business is decent, but i’m facing a challenge in getting a knet machine for my store.

i visited a few banks to inquire about getting knet, but they all informed me that it can only be issued in the name of the sponsor, or i need a no objection certificate (noc) from my sponsor. unfortunately, my sponsor is not willing to provide the noc.

is there any other legal way to get a knet machine in this situation? has anyone here faced a similar issue or found a workaround? i really want to offer knet payment to customers, as it’s in high demand and affects my business.

any advice, suggestions, or guidance will be highly appreciated. thank you in advance.

best regards,

Kuwait Visa Online

Posted by rakesh on 7/2/2025 11:41:23 am

dear friends,

i have created an account on the kuwait visa portal and attempted to add a family member. during the process, i was asked to upload a translated marriage certificate, which i did. however, my profile was rejected with the reason stated as "incorrect documents submitted."

note: i uploaded a translated marriage certificate that was translated and attested by the ministry of justice (moj) and ministry of foreign affairs (mofa) in 2021. i checked with the translation company before im adding the family member, and they confirmed that there is no expiry for such documents and advised me to upload the same.

now, after 3 days of rejection, when i try to add the family member again and upload the passport, the system shows the message: "active request already exists" and does not allow me to proceed further.

kindly advise how to resolve this issue so i can successfully add my family member.
thank you.

Early Retirement

Posted by fed up on 6/30/2025 2:43:32 pm

dear all,

i have been working in kuwait for the past 22 years. i love this country and it has indeed given me a lot. i''m 43 now with 2 school going kids and work for a huge corporation. i have a secure job for atleast 1 more year but im really mentally drained. i really dont think i can continue here mentally and this taking a toll on me physically. the idea of going to work itself is exhausting. i have saved and secured as much as possible without any compromise in life. got a house of my own, a vehicle, some equity investments (1 cr +) and around 40 lakh cash as emergency fund in hand.

i''m going to hand in my resignation anytime now. just waiting for a tick.

am i making a mistake >? is it too early ??? is the money worth over mental sanity ? will life in india be hard to adapt ? is this good enough to survive ?
