Iraq visa for Syrian citizens

As an Iraqi passport holder, you'll be pleased to know that travel to Syria is visa-free, simplifying your journey significantly. This allows for a stay of up to 90 days, perfect for exploring the rich history and vibrant culture of Damascus. While no visa fee is required for this visa-free entry, be mindful that Syrian currency, the pound (SYP), is distinct from the Iraqi dinar, so some exchange will be necessary upon arrival. Most travelers opt for direct flights from Baghdad, with journey times averaging around 1.5 hours, making a spontaneous trip entirely feasible.
