Tehran, Iran, Nov. 03 – Kuwait has limited visa application approval from Iran as well as six other states – Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Libya – the Islamic Republic’s state-run news agency, IRNA, reported on Thursday.

Under the new visa rules, individuals wanting to travel from Iran for work or leisure will be refused visas.

Invitations by Kuwaiti citizens for Iranians will only be allowed if the traveller is an immediate relative of the citizen.
