The Kuiper belt is a region of the solar system beyond the orbit of Neptune, believed to contain many comets, asteroids, and other small bodies made largely of ice.

So it 'belongs' to the whole Solar System, and although it is closest to Neptune, no planet owns it.

The "Kuiper Belt" is named for Dutch astronomer Gerard Kuiper (1905-1973) and extends outward from the orbit of Neptune (from about 30 to 55 AU from the Sun). The area is vast, encompassing several trillion cubic kilometers. It contains many remnants from the formation of the Solar System, as its lack of planet-sized bodies prevented smaller planetoids from being captured or swept away.
