Due to the countless military facilities, as well as the large petroleum industries, the presence of DBA is expanding at a faster pace in Kuwait than other areas in the Middle East.

For this reason, new offices have been established for Tangiers in Kuwait and the surr ounding areas. Tangiers International is now able to offer a full spectrum of investigative and field case management services for all insurance companies interested in covering their DBA claims in this dynamic region.

The Defense Base Act mainly covers contractors working on United States interests abroad, regardless of their nationality. These styles of claims provide a unique type of inspection that has been perfected by Tangiers International.

With the advent of Kuwait, Qatar, and Bahrain now experiencing faster business growth than any other region on Earth, it is vital that these areas are covered by our experienced DBA team.
