Kuwait

Обзор экономики и отраслей

Kuwait is a high-income, oil-dependent economy in the Arabian Gulf whose petroleum sector accounts for roughly half of GDP, approximately 95 percent of export revenues, and about 91 percent of government revenues. The country holds an estimated 94 billion barrels of recoverable oil reserves and is a member of the OPEC+ group. Kuwait Vision 2035 aims to diversify the economy by developing the petrochemical industry, financial services, and logistics, though progress on structural reforms has been gradual. The banking and financial sector is well-developed and dominates the domestic stock market, with Islamic banking institutions playing a prominent role. The Kuwaiti dinar is pegged to a currency basket and is one of the highest-valued currency units in the world.

Переезд и вид на жительство

Доступ для иностранных инвесторов

Foreign nationals in Kuwait reside under the kafala (sponsorship) system, which links legal residency to an employer or Kuwaiti sponsor. Kuwait does not offer permanent residency or citizenship to expatriates through investment. Expatriates make up a substantial majority of the resident population and workforce. Those wishing to relocate must secure employment or a qualifying sponsorship arrangement before arrival.
