Kuwait-specific requirements to plan for

Projects for businesses in Kuwait City have to work for local customers and local rules. These points are planned from the first milestone:

CITRA Data Privacy Protection Regulation (Resolution No. 26 of 2024): Kuwait has no general data-protection law; the regulation applies to CITRA-licensed telecom and online service providers, who must report breaches.
Payment methods customers in Kuwait expect: KNET, MyFatoorah, Tap Payments and Apple Pay.
Interface and content languages: Arabic and English, with proper right-to-left (RTL) layouts.
