About Iraq Passport
The Iraqi passport is one of the most restricted in the world, ranking near the bottom of the Henley Passport Index. It gives visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to roughly 19 destinations, mostly in the region, so for most countries a visa is required.
The good news is that a growing number of those visas can be obtained online as an eVisa or eTA instead of at an embassy - and those are exactly the ones we handle for you. Wherever you travel, keep your passport valid for at least six months from your arrival date.

Regional travel for Iraq
Read the travel policy details for Iraq
Iraqi passport holders travel visa-free or with a visa on arrival to only a small set of countries, mostly neighbouring and regional states. Many destinations - including Europe, the United Kingdom and the United States - require an embassy visa, and the United States currently applies heightened entry restrictions to Iraqi nationals.
Where an online route does exist, it is far simpler than a consulate appointment. Destinations such as the UAE, Sri Lanka, Kenya, Bahrain and several African countries accept an online eVisa or eTA from Iraqi travellers, and those are the ones we complete and submit for you.

Frequently Asked Questions
Only to a small number of places - the Iraqi passport gives visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to around 19 countries and territories, and ranks near the bottom of the Henley Passport Index. Most of that access is to neighbouring and a few other states. For the rest of the world a visa is needed, and a growing number of those can now be arranged online rather than at an embassy.
