Office of the Spokesperson

Today, the Department of State announced the suspension of operations at U.S. Embassy Kuwait City.

While there have been no reported injuries to U.S. personnel, the safety of Americans abroad remains the highest priority of the U.S. Department of State.

The Travel Advisory for Kuwait remains at a Level 3: Reconsider Travel. U.S. citizens should consult the most current Travel Advisory and country information at travel.state.gov.

U.S. citizens in Kuwait should depart the country, if they can do so safely, using commercial or other available transportation options. U.S. citizens unable to depart should shelter in place.

U.S. citizens requiring emergency assistance, including consular services and information on available departure options, may contact the Department of State’s Bureau of Consular Affairs 24/7 at +1-202-501-4444 (from abroad) and +1-888-407-4747 (from the United States and Canada).

U.S. citizens are strongly encouraged to enroll in the Smart Traveler Enrollment Program (STEP) at step.state.gov to receive security updates from the nearest U.S. embassy or consulate.
