English translation
Domicile is the place where a person habitually resides. The place of business is the place where a person carries on a trade or craft or manages his assets; for an official or employee, it is the place where he habitually performs his work. A person may have more than one domicile or more than one place of business at the same time, and in cases of multiplicity they shall all be equal. Article 14 (2) The domicile of a minor, a person under interdiction, a missing person or an absentee shall be the domicile of his legal representative. The domicile of a legal person shall be the place where its administrative headquarters are situated. Nevertheless, the place where one of its branches is situated may be considered a domicile in respect of matters falling within that branch’s activities. For a legal person whose principal headquarters are abroad and which conducts activities in Kuwait, the place where its local administration is situated shall be considered its domicile in respect of those activities.

الموطن هو المكان الذي يقيم فيه الشخص عادة. ومحل العمل هو المكان الذي
يباشر فيه الشخص تجارة أو حرفة أو يقوم على إدارة أمواله فيه، وبالنسبة للموظف
والعامل هو المكان الذي يؤدي فيه عمله عادة.
ويجوز أن يكون للشخص في وقت واحد أكثر من موطن أو أكثر من محل عمل،
وفي أحوال التعدد يتساوى الجميع.Court of Cassation principles citing this article
