Kuwait is, however, giving visas to people of India, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka, Online news agency said.
Sources said Pakistan's ambassador in Kuwait has stated that the oil-rich nation announced the curbs due to apprehensions by Kuwaiti authorities that many of the Pakistanis are drug traffickers.
Online said Pakistan has decided to initiate a dialogue to resolve the issue and the interior minister is likely to leave for Kuwait in the first week of September on the direction of President Gen Pervez Musharraf.
The interior minister would apprise Kuwaiti officials about the steps taken by the government to stamp out fake passports.
