Children born inside Kuwait must be registered within 120 days from date of birth

First Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Interior Sheikh Fahd Al-Yousef has issued Ministerial Resolution No. (1/2026) amending provisions of Resolution No. (89/2) relating to registration deadlines in the Civil Information System.

The decision, which has already become effective says the registration period for children born inside Kuwait has been set at 120 days from the date of birth.

The move is aimed at streamlining civil registration procedures, enhancing data accuracy, and improving administrative efficiency across government entities, in line with ongoing efforts to modernise public services and strengthen institutional governance.
