Iraq’s tech sector is growing quickly, creating strong opportunities for IT, telecom, and data infrastructure imports. However, businesses must prepare for a highly regulated environment and a multi-step customs clearance process.
Iraq enforces strict import rules, including embargoes on certain goods, detailed documentation, and product-specific restrictions. Non-compliance often results in shipment holds or fines.
Lengthy clearance times, overlapping authorities, and evolving trade laws can cause unpredictable import timelines.
Customs regulations demand complete export and import declarations. Any errors in paperwork can delay clearance and increase costs.
Geopolitical factors and regional security risks can impact the flow of goods, requiring strategic logistics coordination.
