Kuwait MOH Licensing Overview

Kuwait's Ministry of Health (MOH) regulates the licensing and registration of healthcare professionals across the country. For physicians, nurses, pharmacists, dentists, and allied health professionals aiming to practice in Kuwait, meeting MOH's licensing requirements is a mandatory step before you can begin working in a Kuwaiti hospital, clinic, or medical facility.
