Answer: Under the laws of Kuwait it is an offence to work while you are on a dependent visa, no matter whether you are a professional or not. However the same laws permit a person on dependent visa to transfer his/her residence to a work permit if the applicant has been in Kuwait for at least a year or she/he is a university graduate.
