Based on the Foreign Ministry’s vision aiming at immunizing Kuwait donor parties, and stemming from Kuwait’s deep commitment to agreed-upon international measures in the field of combating the financing of terrorism, and mainly the importance of immunizing the non-profit organizations and protect them from the vulnerability of becoming an easy target for terrorist organizations, that may appear as legitimate entities, and that could be exploited as tools for terrorist financing. And out of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs’ keenness to distance Kuwaiti donor institutions from suspicions related to financing terrorism, the State of Kuwait, represented by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, has taken several measures since 2014, to oblige all Kuwaiti donor agencies not to cooperate with any foreign party unless it is has been previously accredited by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, to ensure they are not subject to exploitation by terrorist organizations, by verifying that these organizations possess the basic institutional fundamentals, to execute humanitarian and development projects. In light of the above, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs launched in August 2015 the initial phase of the Humanitarian Affairs electronic platform for registering foreign entities in the database of foreign entities wishing to obtain accreditation from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, leading consequently to fulfilling all the other requirements that would qualify them to receive donations from Kuwaiti donors.

Registration

Registering in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs’ Humanitarian Affairs electronic platform is the first step. Registration, however, is not available directly through the website. Therefore, any party that is interested in registering in the platform is requested to get in contact either with a Kuwaiti donor organization or with the nearest Kuwaiti diplomatic mission (Embassy/General Consulate), which in turn will carry out the initial registration process for the organization’s file in the database of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. As for the second step, the entity wishing to obtain accreditation from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs will receive a link via e-mail, to complete the rest of the procedures by filling an electronic form.

  1. An official letter signed by the Chairman of the Board of Directors, addressed to the Ambassador or Consul General of the State of Kuwait in the concerned country, including a registration request, and an affidavit of the validity of data entered in the application form.
  2. Certified copy of the official license issued by the relevant authorities in the State.
  3. Certified copy of the statute (Bylaw)
  4. Certified copy of the government’s authorization to raise funds (this could also be incorporated into the articles the statute "Bylaw").
  5. Certified audited copy of the organization’s detailed budget for the previous financial year.
  6. Certified Audited certificate of financial soundness.
  7. Reference letters.
  8. Certified criminal record certificate for all members of the board of trustees and directors of executive management
  9. Certified bank attestation with the list of authorized signatories for the organization’s bank account (it is also essential to provide the bank account number in the same attestation).
