Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem is the chairman and group chief executive of DP World, the Dubai ports and logistics group, and a serving public official of the United Arab Emirates. The released files carry a decade of his correspondence with Jeffrey Epstein, from June 2009 to January 2019, the whole of it after Epstein’s 2008 conviction and registration as a sex offender. Most of it is company business and is set out on DP World. What that page cannot carry, and what this page is for, is the part of the traffic that is his own: he asked Epstein to introduce him to a former Israeli prime minister;8 he asked Epstein for a doctor for a schoolmate;9 he told Epstein he had described him to the President of the Democratic Republic of the Congo as “an American fund manager who will visit with me next time”;10 he arranged for thirty ancestry testing kits Epstein was sending to Dubai’s ruling family to be carried out of New York by an Emirates cabin crew;11 and on 18 July 2017 he paid $6,200 into one of Epstein’s bank accounts.4 Epstein in turn put him in front of a British cabinet minister, the Secretary General of the Council of Europe, a Slovak foreign minister and the chairman of Hyatt Hotels.9 No statement by Sultan Bin Sulayem about Jeffrey Epstein is cited on this page.

What the documents record him doing is set out below as documented fact. What any of it says about influence, about what either man wanted, or about why a payment was made, is not in the documents and is put here as a question.

The search this page rests on

The name was queried in the released files in nine forms. The document counts, measured on 20 September 2026 against the full text corpus, are:

formdocumentspages
Sulayem (bare surname)5,0785,391
Bin Sulayem5,0125,300
Sultan Bin Sulayem4,6794,866
Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem351401
Sulayem Sultan4850
Sultan Sulayem2527
sultan suleiman1919
Sultan Ahmed Sulayem44
Sulaym11

Two of these forms matter more than their size suggests. "Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem" is not contained in "Sultan Bin Sulayem": 300 of its 351 documents lie outside the plain phrase, because the tokeniser sees the middle name as a word between the two the plain phrase joins. A pass keyed on the plain form alone loses those 300. And sultan suleiman, a spelling Epstein himself used, reaches 19 documents that no correct spelling of the name reaches at all.1

The surname over-states him by a small margin. Sulayem returns 5,078 documents, of which 399 do not carry the phrase "Sultan Bin Sulayem"; among the senders in that remainder is at least one other bearer of the name, indexed as khalid A Bin Sulayem on six documents. The surname is therefore a ceiling and not a count of him.3

On the site’s own sender index, the canonical string Sultan Bin Sulayem carries 2,899 message rows across 2,547 documents. That figure understates the traffic. Taking every sender string of the shape, and setting aside the other bearer of the name, the index holds 3,326 rows across 2,887 documents, a seventh more than the canonical string alone. The additional rows sit under strings the scanning produced rather than strings anyone typed: Sultan Bln Sulayem on 52 documents, and two handle-derived forms on 123 and 33.3

⚠ A message count is not an act. Almost all of that traffic is short courtesy correspondence, company news and travel notes. The acts set out below were found by reading, not by counting, and they are a small fraction of the file.

2009: the correspondence in the release begins mid-relationship

The earliest message from him in the release is timed 1:14:27 a.m. on 30 June 2009. It reads, whole: “Hello my friend how are you Please use this e mail as I don’t use ▮ any more ▮”. The two bars are the producing party’s. It is a change of address, sent to an Epstein address the file shows in use at the time, and it opens by calling Epstein a friend.5

So the release does not record the start of the relationship; it records a change of mailbox inside one already running. The earliest dated item on either page is a company brief on the London Gateway port sent on 9 May 2009, seven weeks earlier.2 How far back the acquaintance goes is not answered by anything opened for this page.

Epstein had pleaded guilty in Palm Beach County in June 2008 and was a registered sex offender from that year. Every document cited on this page is later than that.

The company business, and where it is treated

The larger part of the file is DP World’s: the London Gateway port and the approach to the British government over its financing, an acquisition the company called “project china,” a London listing, a New York dinner in his honour, and a 2018 approach about Nigerian ports. All of that, including Epstein’s line edits to a letter Bin Sulayem was about to send a British Secretary of State, is set out at DP World and is not repeated here.2

Two strands of company business are not on that page and are recorded here because they are the frame for what follows. In August 2009 Epstein was advising him on the Venezuelan and Cuban ports: “They are your trouble not venezuela.. The end game should be , trying to operate all the ports for both countries.”12 In November 2010 Epstein offered him an intermediary for those ports: “THe Former Sec of Energy and Us Ambassador to the UN Bill Richardson.. Is close to both chavez and castro ( raul). He would be happy to work on your behalf re the ports in both cuba and venezuela.”13 Both are Epstein’s acts, not his, and both are owed to the company page.

May 2013: what he told three African governments

On 23 May 2013, under the subject “My Africa visit,” he wrote to Epstein from a trip to Congo Kinshasa, Gabon and Rwanda. The message is his own account of what he had said, and the sentence that matters is this one:

“I met president Kabila I discussed port investment which he welcomes he want to give us investment in mining and oil and gas I mentioned to him that I have an American fund manager who will visit with me next time he welcomed that very much”

He went on: “Also met my friend Ali bongo and spoke extensively about my keen interest in Gabon and and promised to visit him with you which he welcomes,” and, of Rwanda, “I spoke to him on the phone met his top officials again he welcomes your visit”. He closed: “I will then discuss with you the outcome and we will visit together at a convenient date to you.” The spellings, including “Rawanda,” are as the sheet prints them.10

Documented fact: he told Epstein that he had described him to a head of state as an American fund manager who would travel with him, and that he had promised two further heads of state the same visit. The document is his report of those conversations, not a record of them; what was actually said to President Kabila is not in the release as anything opened for this page. Question: what did three African governments understand they were being offered in the man he was bringing? Nothing cited here answers it, and no document opened for this page records any of those visits taking place.

2014 to 2016: the port of St Croix

On 6 September 2014 Epstein put a United States Virgin Islands port to him: “its very intesting, very- a US port not subject to the jones act . strange, there was a giant oil co hovensa. that left the island , along with an aluminum smelter. , all giant ships. . I think I could also get us federal funds to help build. due to the economicss of the VI. , we would also get a us tax break. The governor. is very friendly. I am pulling togther info for you. they came to me to invest. not knowing about you at all.”

He answered at 12:29:04 UTC the same day:

“Great that will be helpful If we invest I will have a reason to regularly visit you (:”

The sheet prints Epstein’s message with a bare clock time and no offset, and his own reply with the offset shown outright, so only his own time is fixed here.14

Three days later he forwarded the material to DP World’s Americas region head, writing “Dear Mat / Please go through the info as I was contacted to see if we are interested to manage this small port its very interesting a US port not subject to the jones act.” The same document carries Epstein’s Virgin Islands lawyer supplying specifications for the Wilfred “Bombe” Allick Port and Transshipment Center at Krause Lagoon on St Croix.15

On 30 September 2014 he issued the instruction. The sheet, read at the image, prints his message as:

“Dear Mat Please contact Miss Erika Ekellerhals Regarding port of=at Croix”

The doubled initial in the lawyer’s surname and the =at for St are damage in the print itself, not in the extraction, and are given as the sheet has them. Matthew Leech, whose signature block on the sheet gives his title over two lines as Senior Vice President and Managing Director of the DP World Americas Region, answered “Will do.” over a header stamped 12:06:49 a.m. GMT+4 on 1 October, copying a DP World colleague. Bin Sulayem forwarded the exchange to Epstein, who forwarded it the same evening to the lawyer with the line “See you Tomorw at 10”. Every address field on the sheet is barred.16

Documented fact: he directed a named DP World executive to contact Jeffrey Epstein’s Virgin Islands lawyer about a United States port, and the executive confirmed he would. Nothing opened for this page records what the executive then did, or whether DP World ever bid for, managed or invested in that port.

The subject was still alive twenty months later. On 9 June 2016 Epstein wrote “fyi, i am on island , if you over fly and want to say hi”. Bin Sulayem replied, at 13:50:34 UTC:

“Dear Jeffery I am in the air just left St. John in my route to London I will visit you oct/ nov depending on your schedule I need to be in the Dom republic this fall Looking forward to see you may arrange for me to meet the port authority to look again at the port and the cruise terminal”

Read as the sheet has it, this is a declined fly-by, not a visit. Epstein offers; the reply says he has just left St. John and is on his way to London, and proposes a visit in the autumn instead. Nothing on the sheet places him on either island.17

What he asked Epstein for

Four published pages on this wiki already carry his requests, each from the other side of the exchange.

  • June 2015, an introduction to Ehud Barak. “Can you please arrange for me to meet Ehud”. Barak answered Epstein the same day: “Yes,of course. Give him my phone no. and contact info. And we will meet. I owe him. Last time he paid for my coffee and starters.”8
  • July 2016, a doctor. Under the subject “Medical help” he wrote to Epstein about a schoolmate’s care. Epstein replied “i suggest you send to moscowitz in palm foranswer”; he answered “Great thank you my friend” and wrote to the doctor the same evening, copying Epstein. See Bruce Moskowitz and the Epstein medical network.9
  • February 2017, Strasbourg. Epstein sent him a biography of Thorbjørn Jagland, then Secretary General of the Council of Europe, ahead of a visit, and a thread the following day works out transport, food and lodging for it.9
  • March 2018, Slovakia. Epstein wrote to the Slovak politician Miroslav Lajčák: “My friend sultan. , who built Dubai. Is in charge of Dubai world going to look at logistic in Slovenia. Etc he built the palm islands in Dubai. Sultan Bin Sulayem”, and “I told him to talk to you”. In the other direction on the same dates Epstein sent him Lajčák’s name and Wikipedia link; he replied, “How do I contact him”.9

He also supplied Epstein with information. On 20 May 2012, asked who a man Epstein had just met was, he answered with a description of the man’s businesses, ending “And yes he is a strange man”; see Shaher Abdulhak. On 14 May 2012 he wrote, unprompted, “How is Jes Staley I read that JP Morgan registered a loss of $2 B”; see Jes Staley. On 16 April 2013 he wrote under the subject “Prince Andrew lunch in London”: “Prince Andrew invited me for lunch on 1 st of May at a function he is holding for the president if UAE who’s is on an official visit to UK.” Epstein replied, “Greatv.”; see Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor.9

None of those four pages could link him when they were written, because this page did not exist.

November 2016 and December 2016: two referrals

On 29 November 2016 Epstein arranged a dinner at Harvard with Tom Pritzker, chairman of Hyatt Hotels, copying Bin Sulayem on the exchange; Pritzker’s reply settles the time and the address.18

A month later Epstein approached a Dubai architectural practice about building on his Virgin Islands land, opening: “Eduardo, I ve gotten your name from sulltan su=eiman in Dubai. He and I are great friends. = have two islands in the us virgin islands and want to build a great home&=bsp; Sultan thought you might be the right fit .” The doubled ll in “sulltan,” the =eiman, and the encoding fragments are as the sheet prints them. Epstein then offered to fly the architect to St Thomas.19

⚠ The referral is asserted by Epstein, to a third party, in his own words. No document opened for this page carries Bin Sulayem making it. Question: did he in fact give that name, and did he know what it was wanted for? Nothing cited here answers either half.

May and July 2017: the ancestry kits

On 23 May 2017 Epstein’s office was telephoned from an airport about a package addressed to Al Maktoum. Epstein wrote to his assistant, “did we get the package it is thirty ancestor kits dna,” and separately “sultan said he sent it to my house”. Bin Sulayem’s own message in the chain resolves the confusion:

“Mike will collect it and take it to air port and send it with a cabin crew to Dubai No need contact jim”

Documented fact: he arranged for a package of thirty DNA ancestry kits that Epstein was sending to the Al Maktoum family to be collected and carried to Dubai by an airline cabin crew.11

Eight weeks later the two discussed the kits again. Epstein: “should we send s▮eik mo a 23 and me kit?” The answer: “He has it already or did they cancel it”. Epstein: “did you find yours? are you part jewish?” The encoding damage is the sheet’s.20

18 July 2017: the payment

Two days after that exchange, a Government exhibit records the payment this page is built on.

EFTA00027019 is a five-exhibit schedule of transactions in Jeffrey Epstein’s Deutsche Bank accounts. Its fourth exhibit, beginning on p. 4, is headed “EXHIBIT C: CAPITALIZATION OF JEFFREY EPSTEIN’S NOW/SUPERNOW ACCOUNTS”. Its columns are **Date · Payer · Recipient · Amount · Bates , and the exhibit’s own footnote 6 explains that the Recipient column holds the account number, which is barred on every row: “the only functional difference between the two accounts that we have identified is the account number, which is reflected in the ‘Recipient’ column.”

On p. 5 one row reads:

7/18/2017 · Sultan Bin Sulayem · ▮ · $6,200 · DB-SDNY-0006349

He is in the Payer column. The money ran into an account of Epstein’s, not out of one. The rows above and below his are Epstein’s own entities and a small number of named individuals.4

⚠ This was read at the image at 700 dots per inch, including the column headers and the exhibit’s own defining footnote, because the direction of a payment is exactly the fact a column-wise extraction destroys.

Question: what was $6,200 for? The exhibit states a date, a payer, an amount and a bank reference, and nothing else. No document opened for this page gives a purpose, an invoice, a reimbursement or a subject. It is the only payment between the two men found in anything reviewed for this page, and it is small against the sums on the same schedule, which run to eight figures.

March 2018 and January 2019: the last two invitations

On 20 March 2018 at 11:23 a.m. an assistant to Epstein wrote to him: “Hello Sultan. Jeffrey is asking if you could please come see him this Thursday March 22 at 7:30pm at his home: / 9 East 71st Street between 5th and Madison / Steve Bannon and Ehud Barak will be at the house as well. Please let me know if you can attend.” The subject line is “Re: Jeffrey Epstein”. He replied at 19:44:35 UTC: “Unfortunately I will nit be able to travel to NY”. The misspelling is as printed.21

He was invited to a gathering at Epstein’s New York house at which two other named guests were held out to him as attending, and he declined. Whether either of the two named men attended is not recorded in anything opened for this page, and the invitation is Epstein’s assistant’s assertion of an intention, not a record of an event.

The last item is 14 January 2019, five months and three weeks before Epstein’s arrest. Epstein wrote to a member of staff: “also need to tell sultan. eduardo. moritx. nicole. bannon. astrid, jabor. annas”. The member of staff answered:

“you would like me to tell the below you will be in Paris Jan. 22-31? I can contact: Sultan Bin Sulayem Eduardo Teodorani Nicole Junkermann Jabor Yousuf

I do not have contact details for: Moritx Bannon Astrid Annas”

That list is a notification list, and what it notifies is Epstein’s Paris dates. A separate message, from a different correspondent, is quoted beneath it on the same sheet and concerns other people wanting to travel to the island in February; nothing on the sheet connects the eight names to that trip. This page does not describe the eight as an island guest list, because the sheet does not.6

What this page does not answer

  • No document reviewed for this page places him on Little St. James or Great St. James. The nearest thing is the June 2016 exchange, in which an invitation to fly over is declined.17 A seized evidence index in the release lists photograph disks from a Christmas 2005 gathering, one of them labelled LSJ XMAS05 SUTON. Read at the image at 700 dots per inch the label reads SUTON, and the set is dated nearly four years before the earliest contact in the release. Nothing links it to him and this page draws no inference from it.22
  • One document is withheld. A record in the release of an investigative interview is understood to note a witness mentioning a man from Dubai. It has not been opened for this page. The document class is one this desk reads one sheet at a time with the image in front of it, never by search, and that reading has not been done. Nothing about it is asserted here in either direction.7
  • What DP World did about St Croix is not established by anything cited here.
  • Why $6,200 moved on 18 July 2017 is not established by anything cited here.
  • These absences are scoped to the documents reviewed for this page, which are the ones listed in the footnotes below and the searches described above. They are not claims about the release as a whole.

Response

No statement by Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem, by DP World, or by the Government of the United Arab Emirates about Jeffrey Epstein or about the correspondence described here is cited on this page, and the searches set out above returned none in the released files.

Footnotes

  1. Name forms measured against the released files’ full text index on 20 September 2026, phrase queries, counting distinct production numbers. Sulayem 5,078; Bin Sulayem 5,012; Sultan Bin Sulayem 4,679; Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem 351; Sulayem Sultan 48; Sultan Sulayem 25; sultan suleiman 19; Sultan Ahmed Sulayem 4; Sulaym 1. Set intersections were computed rather than inferred: Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem has 300 documents outside Sultan Bin Sulayem, so neither form contains the other; Sultan Bin Sulayem is wholly contained in Bin Sulayem, which is wholly contained in Sulayem. ↩ ↩2

  2. DP World, reviewed 5 September 2026, which names him 31 times, cites his company correspondence from 9 May 2009 to 8 June 2018, and reproduces the letter of invitation signed over the group chief executive’s name. The London Gateway sequence, the “project china” acquisition, the London listing, the 2012 Maritime Hall of Fame dinner, the unexecuted corporate guaranty naming him as licensee of a New York space, and the 2018 Nigeria approach are all treated there and are not repeated here. ↩ ↩2 ↩3

  3. Same measurement. Sulayem minus Sultan Bin Sulayem is 399 documents, of which 66 do not carry Bin Sulayem at all. The site’s own sender index returns 2,899 rows across 2,547 documents for the exact sender string Sultan Bin Sulayem, and 3,326 rows across 2,887 documents across every sender string of the shape once the six documents indexed to khalid A Bin Sulayem are set aside. The largest extraction-derived sender strings are Ssulayem (140 rows, 123 documents), Sultan Bln Sulayem (52 rows, 52 documents) and Sbinsulayem (35 rows, 33 documents). These figures measure the index, not the man. ↩ ↩2 ↩3

  4. “EXHIBIT C: CAPITALIZATION OF JEFFREY EPSTEIN’S NOW/SUPERNOW ACCOUNTS,” within a Government schedule of Deutsche Bank transactions, read at the image. EFTA00027019 p. 4 for the exhibit’s title, its column headers DATE · PAYER · RECIPIENT · AMOUNT · BATES # and its footnote 6, read at 400 dpi; EFTA00027019 p. 5 for the row 7/18/2017 · Sultan Bin Sulayem · ▮ · $6,200 · DB-SDNY-0006349, read at 700 dpi. Footnote 6 reads: “In early 2016, Jeffrey Epstein moved his assets from one Now/SuperNow account to a different Now/SuperNow account. We are still unclear as to why this transition occurred, but expect electronic communications to provide additional insight. To date, the only functional difference between the two accounts that we have identified is the account number, which is reflected in the ‘Recipient’ column.” The Recipient cell is barred on every row of the exhibit, including this one. The image was required: the extraction of this table drops the Payer/Recipient distinction and a reader of the text layer alone can take the direction of the payment the wrong way round. No account number is reproduced here. ↩ ↩2 ↩3

  5. Sultan Bin Sulayem, message sent Tuesday 30 June 2009, 1:14:27 a.m., read at the image at 600 dpi. EFTA02439371 p. 1. The body reads in full “Hello my friend how are you Please use this e mail as I don’t use ▮ any more ▮”. Two bars are on the sheet, one mid-sentence and one at the line’s end; both are the producing party’s and the covered words are not supplied here. No address on the sheet is reproduced here. The extraction of this sheet renders the line as “I lello my friend how are you Please use this e mail as I don’t rascally more”, inventing the word “rascally” where the sheet has “use ▮ any”; the damaged rendering is given here so that a checker searching the extraction finds the sheet. A quotation checker will still flag the bar-bearing form as unlocated, because the extraction does not contain it; that is correct behaviour and no pin should be moved on it. ↩ ↩2

  6. Message to Jeffrey Epstein, sent Monday 14 January 2019, 7:34:21 p.m., quoting Epstein’s message of the same day at 2:27 p.m. and, separately, a message from a third correspondent at 3:20 p.m., read at the image at 400 dpi. EFTA02273951 p. 1. The sender field of the reply and the sender field of the 3:20 p.m. message are both barred. The eight names follow the question “you would like me to tell the below you will be in Paris Jan. 22-31?”; the island passage is in the quoted third message, under the subject line, and names nobody. ↩ ↩2

  7. A record of an investigative interview in the release is understood to contain a passing reference to a man from Dubai. No page of it has been opened for this page and no identification, quotation, page number or production number is given here. Records of that class are read one sheet at a time with the image in front of the reader, because the extraction of such sheets has been shown to join separated lists and manufacture statements that are not on the page; that reading has not been done, and until it is, this page neither asserts nor denies anything about it. ↩ ↩2

  8. Ehud Barak to “jeffrey E.”, 18 June 2015, 13:43:42 +0000, quoting Epstein’s message of the same day which carries Sultan Bin Sulayem’s request “Can you please arrange for me to meet Ehud”. EFTA00649997 p. 1. Text layer only; this sheet was not opened at the image. Barak’s sender address and Epstein’s are barred. The quoted request is reproduced inside Epstein’s message together with a mail client’s own preamble, which is not transcribed here. ↩ ↩2

  9. Each of these is already cited and read on a published page of this wiki, and the citation there is not duplicated here: the July 2016 medical request at Bruce Moskowitz and Epstein medical network; the February 2017 Strasbourg visit and the March 2018 reminder at Thorbjørn Jagland; the March and November 2018 Slovak introductions at Miroslav Lajčák; the May 2012 exchange about a Yemeni businessman at Shaher Abdulhak; the May 2012 message about a bank’s losses at Jes Staley; and the April 2013 lunch message at Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor.

The instruction as printed reads “Dear Mat / Please contact Miss Erika Ekellerhals / Regarding port of=at Croix”; the doubled initial and the =at are transmission damage present in the print itself. Leech’s title is set on two separate lines of his signature block and is described here rather than quoted, because a string joined across two printed lines is not a string on the sheet; his telephone, cell and e-mail lines are barred; a DP World colleague is copied. Every other address field on the sheet is barred. Only one of the two quoted clocks carries an offset, so the two-minute interval between the instruction and the reply is not asserted here. ↩

  17. Sultan Bin Sulayem to “jeffrey E.”, 9 June 2016, 13:50:34 +0000, quoting Epstein’s message of the same day, read at the image at 400 dpi. EFTA00631662 p. 1. His own sender address is barred. Epstein’s quoted message is stamped “6:56 AM” with no offset and is the quoting client’s rendering. “Jeffery” and “in my route” are as printed. The sheet records an invitation and a reply in transit; it does not record a visit. ↩ ↩2

  18. “Re:”, Jeffrey Epstein to Tom Pritzker and to Sultan Bin Sulayem, 29 November 2016, 16:52:55 +0000, carrying Pritzker’s reply of the same day at 11:51 a.m. EFTA00439785 pp. 1 to 2. Text layer only; these sheets were not opened at the image. Both recipient addresses are barred. ↩

  19. Exchange of 28 and 29 December 2016 between Jeffrey Epstein and an architect at a Dubai practice, Epstein’s opening message quoted within the chain as sent 28 December 2016 at 6:24 p.m. EFTA02664965 pp. 3 to 4. Text layer only; these sheets were not opened at the image, and the extraction carries quoted-printable damage throughout which is reproduced rather than repaired. The architect’s telephone lines and e-mail addresses are barred or not reproduced; the practice’s published business address is on the sheet and is not repeated here. The quotation continues onto p. 4 of the run, which is why both sheets are cited: p. 3 ends at “Sultan thought you” and p. 4 opens “might be the right fit .”. A quotation checker searching either sheet alone will report the span as unlocated, and that is the page break, not a wrong pin. ↩

Text layer only; this sheet was not opened at the image. The sheet carries quoted-printable damage throughout, including in the word rendered here with a bar, and it is not repaired. ↩
