Citizens and residents in Kuwait now have access to Meta Kuwait portal — a centralized online portal that streamlines appointments with government agencies. Whether you need biometric registration, civil ID services, or visits to various ministries, Meta Kuwait offers an easier, more convenient alternative to long walks and queues at government offices. This article walks you through everything you need to know: registration, logging in, booking or modifying appointments, and tips to make the process smooth.
What is Meta Kuwait?
Meta Kuwait (accessible via meta.e.gov.kw) is the official government platform for scheduling appointments with various ministries, public departments, and agencies. Instead of showing up at an office and taking a numbered ticket, users can:
Book appointments online at their preferred date and time
Access services from agencies such as the Ministry of Interior, Civil ID, and others
Manage or cancel existing appointments
Reduce waiting time and avoid unnecessary travel
For many services—especially biometric enrollment and identity verification—use of Meta Kuwait is mandatory.
