Kuwait will be issuing identification cards to all real estate brokers in the country over the next few days in a bid to help address the problems that citizens face in dealing with illegal brokers, said a report.

The Ministry of Commerce and Industry's move is aimed at ending chaos in the concerned governmental bodies due to the existence of many expatriate real estate brokers, reported Arab Times, citing sources.

Sources said the identification cards will be distributed to real estate broker offices which have updated their data; indicating that 600 out of 3,300 such offices have so far updated their data, it added.
