A viral audio caused confusion online about residency fees in Kuwait. The Ministry of Interior stepped in to clarify. They said claims about waiving residency fees under the new law are false. These rumors spread on social media without any official support. The Ministry posted on X that no exemption exists for residency fees. Procedures and fees continue as usual. "No decision has been issued to exempt any category of residents from paying residency fees," officials said. They also denied any partial or temporary suspension of these fees. The only active exemption relates to health insurance fees. This is a decision from the Ministry of Health, applying only to the first three domestic workers sponsored by Kuwaiti families. It does not affect residency fees or other charges. The Ministry of Interior urged people to share information responsibly. They warned that unverified news creates confusion. Official updates on residency laws or fees will only come through authorized government channels, not anonymous online content.
