GCC to adopt single visa system -- Kuwaiti official

GCC immigration chiefs are expected to approve a single visa application system at a meeting here Sunday, Kuwait's immigration chief said.

A la the European Schengen visa, the planned European visa will enable Gulf visitors to tour all the six GCC member countries, Kuwaiti General Administration for Immigration Director-General Brig. Kamel al-Awadhi told KUNA on the sidelines of the 24th meeting of GCC immigration chiefs.

The single Gulf visa application system was suggested and given the thumbs up during a recent meeting of undersecretaries of GCC interior ministries in Riyadh, he said.
