Kuwait Court of Cassation principle number 4611

The legislature surrounded expropriation procedures with sufficient safeguards that achieve the public interest and preserve the rights of the owners of properties covered by those procedures. Valuation of the property takes place only after the expropriation decision has been issued and published in the Official Gazette and the Real Estate Registration Department has been notified by a copy thereof. Completion of these procedures removes the property from the sphere of dealings, and it is deemed public State property; the rights in rem over the property transfer to the value of the corresponding compensation. Article 33, Law 33 of 1964. Example.
