Irak: yolculuktan önce bilinmesi gerekenler

Giriş ve vizeler

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.
