Kuwait in the house, I don't know the answer to your question, will ask my husband. Than I will let you know but the poster most likely knows what he is telling you.

if there is a way to see it for sure i will help u, i suggest something better for you: Issue a birth certificate for your wife from her country (philippines I think) and use that one for your papers. anyone can issue a birth certificate from his country and it will show that the place of birth is Kuwait.

I'm not sure if it helps, but my husband's BC is handwritten in a little booklet with a few pages (like thick, white card stock paper) that has his birth information, but also the vaccination record on it. It is old now and the only one he has. He went to the Ministry of Health (I think it is?) in Kuwait, but couldn't get a new one because of something with his civil ID. We just got his original one translated and hoped it worked because we had no other choice. So far it has worked for us and the Embassy in Kuwait accepted it. That's all I can offer by way of anecdotal information. Good luck.
