You can get your visa on arrival in Kuwait, but it's worth preparing the paperwork ahead of time:

Nationalities eligible for a visa on arrival can get it at Kuwait International Airport or online on the Ministry of Interior website, for tourist stays of up to 90 days. When entering overland from Iraq or Saudi Arabia, get it beforehand. Tourist and visit visas do not allow work.
