25th Anniversary Gulf Cooperation Council

The Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) of Arab Gulf States is a regional political, economic and social organization that works within the principles and objectives laid down in its constitution. The GCC represents a cooperative initiative of Arab Gulf States established to meet challenges peculiar to the region. The organization embraces multiple aspects, such as economy, politics, security, culture, health, information, education and affairs pertaining to legislature, administration, energy, industry, mining, agriculture, water and animal resources. 

The member countries of the council are: the state of the United Arab Emirates, Kingdom of Bahrain, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Sultanate of Oman, the State of Qatar and the State of Kuwait. 

The Gulf Cooperation Council was established 25 years ago, and the first summit was held on May 25, 1981, in Abu Dhabi, capital of the UAE.  Since then, the summit has been held every year. 

In coordination with the general secretariat of the Gulf Cooperation Council, it was decided for the first time among all GCC Postal administrations to issue a joint stamp and a souvenir sheet to celebrate the momentous occasion.
