From an 80-storey tower on Dubai’s Sheikh Zayed Road to golf resorts in Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Oman, the Trump name is appearing on a growing number of high-profile developments in the Gulf.

The Trump Organisation has established a substantial presence in the Gulf region, with six ongoing projects valued at billions of dollars across four countries: Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar, and Oman. The group's expansion began in 2017 with the completion of the Trump International Golf Club in Dubai, a partnership with UAE developer Damac.
Executive vice president Eric Trump noted the region's warm reception of their ventures, praising their early entry into Dubai when skepticism prevailed. Jeddah and Riyadh in Saudi Arabia are central to the current expansion, with three upcoming projects featuring Trump-branded golf courses, international hotels, and premium residences.
These developments are scheduled for completion between 2029 and 2030, driven by a rising demand for homes to support Saudi Vision 2030 initiatives and host major international events. In Qatar, the Trump Organisation launched a project in Doha, adding an 18-hole golf course, a clubhouse, and luxury villas to the Simaisma development.
Meanwhile, Dubai hosts the Trump Tower, a $1 billion, 80-story development on Sheikh Zayed Road, generating significant interest from both regional and global investors. Beyond the Middle East, the Trump Organisation is exploring new markets, such as Santa Maria Island in Cuba, although approval from the Trump Organisation remains pending.
In Muscat, Oman, the company is developing a resort featuring villas, a hotel, and a golf course, contributing to a surge in revenue reported by President Donald Trump and the Trump Organisation, with licensing fees totaling $38 million in the latest filing.
