The UAE has been named the world's safest country in Numbeo's 2025 Mid-Year Safety Index, surpassing 147 other nations to win the top spot.

The country’s score went up from 84.5 to 85.2 in the global safety index.

Andorra came in second, with an index score of 84.8.

The total index score is determined by survey responses on the database’s website, and based on factors including perception of crime rates, perceived safety during day and night, violent crimes, concerns over specific crimes like mugging, car theft, physical attack, and property-related crime like burglary and vandalism.

Qatar was placed in third with a score of 84.6, while Taiwan and Macao scored 83.0 and 81.8 respectively.

Oman, Isle of Man, Hong Kong, Armenia and Singapore made it to the top 10.
