They died in blasts at the governor of Kandahar's guesthouse on Tuesday, where at least five others were killed.
The governor and the UAE ambassador were among at least a dozen wounded. Kandahar's deputy governor, two senior Afghan officials and two MPs also died.
The attack was one of several in Afghanistan on Tuesday.
The Taliban admitted attacks in the capital Kabul and in Helmand province, but denied the Kandahar attack, instead blaming it on "internal local rivalry".
