Best Answer

According to Timatic, Kuwait allows Pakistani nationals to transit without visa, so long as they hold an onward ticket:

Transit - Kuwait (KW)

Visa

Visa required.

TWOV (Transit Without Visa):

Holders of onward tickets for a max. transit time of 24 hours. In case of transit connections beyond 8 hours, passengers must remain airside and be accommodated in the airport transit hotel.

Warning: Passengers with an article-14 visa in their passport are not allowed to re-enter Kuwait with this visa even if it is still valid. The article-14 visa is an exit permit.
