→ Iraq visa for Emirati citizens

For UAE passport holders, embarking on a journey to Iraq is facilitated by an accessible e-visa system, allowing for stays of up to 30 days. This convenient online application covers various purposes, including tourist, business, and transit, among a total of five available visa types. Given the deep historical and cultural connections, many Emirati travelers often embark on short flights, typically around 2-3 hours from Dubai or Abu Dhabi, to explore Iraq's significant archaeological sites or revered pilgrimage destinations. While the Iraqi Dinar is the local currency, it is advisable to carry cash for transactions outside major hotels and establishments.
