Canadian Embassy in Kuwait

If you lost your passport while in Kuwait then the Canadian Embassy in Kuwait will assist you. First report your passport lost to the local police and obtain a case number. This must be taken with you to the Embassy. Once there you will need to apply for a new passport and give them the case number for the old passport. Once done, you will need to wait on a temporary travel document so you can return to Canada or wait on a new passport.

If you need documents legalised and notarized then you will need to ensure that you make an appointment. The Embassy will only notarize certain documents so check the consular assistance page as to what can be done. Most times its used to notarise your degree or other education institutes documentation.

If you are getting married then you will need a letter of no impediment to get married. This is also called the letter of the freedom to get married. You will need to have this translated and certified to be used to register a marriage. From there you can get married in Kuwait. Note that the other foreigner would have to do the same at her or his Embassy. Once registered you will need to have that translated and certified for the spousal visa for Canada to take your spouse back to Canada.

There are a number of other diplomatic missions in the Middle East. These include the Canadian Embassy in Lebanon as well as Canadian Embassy in Qatar and as far afield as the Canadian Consulate in Mumbai in Asia.
