Ирак: что знать перед поездкой
Главное
- Check current official warnings for all parts of Iraq; conflict and kidnapping risks remain severe.
- Federal Iraq and the Kurdistan Region have different visa procedures; a KRI visa is not a federal entry permit.
- Controlled medicines and cannabis/CBD can lead to detention; obtain specific approval before carrying restricted products.
Въезд и визы
British visitors need a visa. For federal Iraq, FCDO says visas on arrival are no longer available: apply through the government eVisa portal at least 24 hours before travel. It reports USD 160 and 60-day validity; confirm the issued terms. KRI has a separate eVisa/arrival-visa process valid only within that region. Do not extrapolate British-passport conditions to other nationalities.
