Comoro Gulf Holdings (CGH), sometimes referred to as Comoros Gulf Holding or Comoro Gulf Holding, was an investment company, set up by Syrian businessmen Bachar Kiwan and Majd Suleiman and Kuwaiti businessmen Sheikh Sabah Jaber Mubarak Al-Sabah and Mohammed Abdulaziz Al-Otaibi, that had worked closely with former Comorian president Ahmed Abdallah Mohamed Sambi, and "monopolized investment and development on the islands."

The company ceased operations between 2014 and 2015 following considerable financial losses and the seizure of assets, which were repercussions of the Comoros passport sales scandal and the ensuing change in presidential leadership in the Comoros. Despite this, several affiliates around the world, controlled by its founders Bashar Kiwan and Majd Suleiman, remained active.
