Kuwait continues procedures related to organizing citizenship affairsA name appears in a list of 2,182 individuals included in citizenship revocation decrees

As part of ongoing procedures to regulate Kuwait’s citizenship files, the relevant authorities in Kuwait announced the inclusion of artist Abdulqader Al-Hadhoud in the list of individuals whose citizenship has been revoked, within broad decisions that included thousands of cases.

According to reports, the artist’s name appeared in a list of 2,182 people covered by citizenship revocation or loss decrees, in what was described as part of a comprehensive review of citizenship files granted under previous laws and regulations currently under scrutiny.

“I accept the decision”In a related context, director Ahmed Rayan announced via his account on the “X” platform that his Kuwaiti citizenship had been revoked, expressing acceptance of the decision and noting that he had previously obtained it under “Article Five,” which applies to children of Kuwaiti mothers.

These developments come amid an official trend to review previous naturalization files, particularly those where individuals obtained citizenship through marriage or dependency, as these cases are currently undergoing detailed legal examination under new regulatory updates.

It is worth noting that artist Abdulqader Al-Hadhoud, born to an Egyptian father and a Kuwaiti mother, later obtained Kuwaiti citizenship. He began his artistic career in 1999 through his participation in the series “Duroob Al-Shakk” alongside actor Mohammed Al-Mansour.
