Hi

I'm an Indian National born in Kuwait (1985) and no longer reside in Kuwait. I lost my birth certificate in the invasion and now am in need of it.

I have read several forums however most of them do not accurately list the documents required. In addition I would also like to know if I can authorize a friend or relative to go and do this formality on my behalf as I no longer reside in Kuwait?

Documents/Information I already have:
- Civil id number only (don't have original or copy of civil id)
- Old passport copy with residence visa stamp and MOI number
- Copy of Birth certificate

Could you let me know if this is sufficient?

You can get a duplicate birth certificate from the Births and Deaths Registration Center in Maidan Hawalli if you were born in Kuwait and lost or misplaced your original. A copy of your card is all that is required. If you have one, you'll also need a copy of your birth certificate.
