What are chances of transmitting hiv to a female through oral ( sucking the vagina) or kissing ?

Your situation involves personal contact with an object in air  (mouth, vagina, kiss etc. ). You will be happy to learn that you had no risk, because you can't get hiv from personal contact except unprotected penetrating vaginal or anal with a penis, neither of which you did and you didn't share hollow needles to inject with which is the only other way to acquire hiv - there are ONLY 3 ways to get hiv. Analysis of large numbers of infected people over the 40 years of hiv history has proven that people don't get hiv in the way you are worried is a risk.
HIV is a fragile virus in air or saliva and is effectively instantly dead in either air or saliva so the WORST that could happen is dead virus rubbed you, and obviously anything which is dead cannot live again so you are good. Blood and cuts would not be relevant in your situation since the hiv has become effectively dead, so you don't have to worry about them to be sure that you are safe.
There is no reason for a person to test when they are safe. The advice took into consideration that the other person might be positive, so move on and enjoy life instead of thinking about this non-event. hiv prevention is straightforward since there are only 3 ways you can become infected, so next time you wonder if you had a risk, ask yourself this QUESTION. "Did I do any of the 3?" Then after you say "No, I didn't" you will know that it's time to move on back to your happy life.
No one got hiv from what you did during 40 years of hiv history and no one will get it in the next 40 years of your life either.  You can do what you did any time and be safe from hiv.
The other person's status is irrelevant when you have no exposure to live virus.

Okay sir I mean he put his tongue in the vagina etc so I am concerned and also kissing was hard with bitting , pls clarify if this changes the stance or comment ?
The only risks for HIV in adults are:
1) Having unprotected anal or vaginal sex, or
2) sharing intravenous needles with IV drug users.

None of the events you mentioned put you at risk for HIV.
Okay I got a rash on the body after 2 days of the event although we were in a resort and in the swimming pool for a long time ..or is this a symptom to be worried ,the rash is itchy
Please re-read my response.  You were never at risk for HIV, so whatever medical issues you are experiencing have nothing to do with HIV.
Okay even assuming the guy was positive the risk level remains same I guess , I MENA no risk and no need to test ?
No risk = no test.  I have fully answered your questions.  It is time to move on from this event.
Thanks a lot pls another question I got this rash and it's very itchy . I did suggest doctor and they told it's more to do may with the water as it was backwater although I did not mention my concern highlighted here . I did have some kissing and same episode with the guy 2 weeks ago , is the rash to be considered as hiv rash or hiv rash is different , I have the rash under my arms it's typically like mosquito bites and very itchy
See your doctor about your non-HIV related medical issues.  I am not going to keep answering you and telling you again that you didn't have a risk for HIV, when I have already listed the only two risks for HIV.
Ok thanks
