Nepalis in Kuwait
Nepalis in Kuwait consist mainly of migrants from Nepal to Kuwait, mostly migrant workers and domestic maids. A growing number of Nepalese workers are joining the hundreds of thousands of other South Asian expatriates in the oil-rich Gulf state as they are promised high monthly wages by recruiters in Nepal. More than 67,000 Nepalis working in Kuwait are domestic helpers and most of them are working as house maids.
