Kuwait Law Supports Charitable Transparency
Kuwait has enacted the Law on the Regulation of Charitable and Humanitarian Work under Legislative Decree No. (87) of 2026, with the aim of developing and enhancing transparency and governance in the charitable sector. The law stipulates the establishment of the National Center for Charitable and Humanitarian Work and the Kuwaiti Fund for Humanitarian Action. It sets strict guidelines for fundraising, protects donor and beneficiary data, and works to prevent the exploitation of charitable activities for illicit purposes such as money laundering and terrorism financing. Additionally, the law emphasizes transparency in financial management and underscores the necessity for existing associations to regularize their status within a specified period, in order to safeguard the reputation of charitable work and strengthen societal trust. The Executive Regulations will be issued within six months. The law aims to build a modern framework that protects donors and enhances Kuwait’s humanitarian standing both locally and internationally.
