Who this applies to, and exceptions
What can change this answer
Holding another visa or a residence permit, your age or your port of entry can open a different route.
These routes are conditional. Every stated requirement must be met; selecting a document does not confirm eligibility.
- Conditional · No visa needed
A Kurdistan Region permission alone does not permit entry at Baghdad, Basra or Najaf. Hold the permission required for federal Iraq.
- Specified ports: BGW · BSR · NJF
- Conditional · Visa on arrivalFree
Documented Iraqi origin may qualify for a free arrival visa. Carry original Iraqi nationality or birth evidence matching the foreign passport; birthplace alone is insufficient.

Iraqi Embassy in Yerevan · - Conditional · Embassy visa needed
Marriage to an Iraqi national alone does not replace the visa. Apply at an Iraqi mission in the country of legal residence with the marriage and nationality documents.
Confirm the permitted stay and entry point before departure.
