Salimiah in April 1967 and a black-and-white photograph confirm the funnel, including the K overlapping the central white band. Mitchell’s 1968 Liverpool observation confines the K to that band. He also gives a related funnel to Kuwait Foreign Trading & Investment, with a much wider central white band, narrower outer white and a non-overlapping K. Qaroah is recorded in that context under P&O General Cargo management in 1980–81, but Rosanoski cannot establish whether the funnel continued in use. The FOTW flag, from Nüsse, uses K where the United Arab Shipping version has A.
