The number of Kuwaiti investors increased to 811 investors in 2025, marking a growth of 38.2 per cent compared to 2024, when the number stood at 587 investors.
These positive indicators come as an extension of the strong fraternal relations between the UAE and Kuwait, which are built on long-standing foundations of cooperation, integration, and mutual trust across various fields, most notably the economic and investment sectors.
“The growing investments of Kuwaiti nationals in Sharjah’s real estate sector reflect the depth of the fraternal and historical relations between the two countries, and confirm the confidence of Kuwaiti investors in the safe and stimulating investment environment provided by the emirate, supported by flexible legislation, advanced real estate services, and a sustainable development vision,” said Abdulaziz Ahmed Al-Shamsi, Director General of the Sharjah Real Estate Registration Department.
He added that the choice of Sharjah by Kuwaiti investors reflects the shared values and aligned visions of both countries, embodying a genuine economic partnership that continues to grow, particularly in the real estate sector, which is considered one of the key drivers of economic development.
