The Department is unaware of any prohibited edible non-prescribed goods that are for export to Kuwait.

1.2 Conditions

Kuwait is a member of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), which has published a Guide for control on imported foods (PDF 1.7 MB). This guide sets requirements, including certification, for all edible products imported into Kuwait.

Non-prescribed goods do not usually require an export certificate. However, the EX188B certificate (manual) has been used in the past to enable a range of non-prescribed goods to enter Kuwait.
