Sahel App Streamlines Biometric Fingerprint Appointment Booking. The government integrated electronic services application, “Sahel,” has introduced a convenient feature allowing Kuwaiti citizens and expatriates to schedule appointments for their biometric fingerprints directly through the Sahel application.

During a press statement, the official spokesperson, Kazem, outlined the simple process for users:
