Three women, from Kuwait, the Philippines and Ethiopia, were among those put to death.
All had been convicted of murder.
Sheikh Faisal Abdullah al-Jaber al-Sabah and two Egyptian men were hanged after being convicted of murder in three separate cases.
A Bangladeshi man was also executed for kidnapping, rape and theft.
The executions are the first since March 2013, when three men, a Saudi, a Pakistani, and a Kuwaiti without citizenship were hanged for murder.
