MANILA — Good news to the overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) in Kuwait as the Department of Migrant Workers (DMW) on Tuesday (26 March 2024) said it would help them if they want to avail of the Kuwaiti government’s amnesty program for overstaying foreign workers.
The DMW said in a statement that its office in Kuwait issued an advisory informing OFWs of the process and steps they need to follow to avail of amnesty.
It was gathered that under the program, overstaying foreigners may leave Kuwait without paying immigration fines.
However, the DMW pointed out that those with pending travel bans and criminal complaints or cases may only depart once these are resolved.
