A Kuwaiti study-permit application must show living-cost funds separate from tuition. For applications made on or after 1 September 2026, a single applicant outside Quebec must show CAD 23,448 for a year, separate from tuition and travel. Kuwait was not part of the Student Direct Stream.

Canada operates a Visa Application Centre in Kuwait City, run by VFS Global, where an applicant submits documents and gives biometrics after filing the study-permit application online; the passport is returned through the centre once a decision is made.

The Kuwaiti dinar's exchange rate is set by the Central Bank of Kuwait, which since May 2007 has pegged it to an undisclosed weighted basket of currencies. The Central Bank states that no restrictions are imposed on the movement of capital, so funds for tuition and living costs can be transferred to Canada through the banking system without a quota or approval step.

The Bank of Canada does not publish a daily exchange rate for the Kuwaiti dinar, so no automatic dinar-to-Canadian-dollar conversion is shown on this page.

Canada's census does not count Kuwaiti nationals separately, so the figures below describe the broader Arab population group, which numbered about 694,000 in the 2021 census.

The largest Arab populations are in the Montreal (about 246,000), Toronto (129,000) and Ottawa-Gatineau (69,000) areas, then Calgary, Edmonton and Vancouver. Most private schools listed on MapleRank are in Ontario and British Columbia; of these centres Toronto and Ottawa are in Ontario and Vancouver is in British Columbia, while Montreal is in Quebec.
