Import regulations

Iraq's vehicle import regime is governed by Law No. 23 of 1984 (Customs Law) and Law No. 22 of 2010 (Customs Duty Law), per Trade.gov. These foundational statutes establish the tariff schedule and customs procedures that apply to incoming automobiles. Iraq imposes customs duties on imported vehicles based on engine size and specifications outlined in the duty law. Buyers should expect standard customs processing at Iraqi ports of entry, with duties calculated according to the schedules set out in Law No. 22 of 2010.

Documentation and Clearance

Importing a brand-new vehicle into Iraq requires comprehensive documentation to clear customs. Consignees must present the bill of lading, commercial invoice, packing list, and certificate of origin. A chassis or VIN certificate is essential to establish the vehicle's identity and specifications. Iraqi customs will cross-reference these documents against the duty schedules to assess applicable tariffs and taxes.

Market Entry Considerations

Brand-new vehicles from Dubai's Jebel Ali Free Zone are accepted into Iraq without age-related restrictions that would apply to used imports. However, the import process can be lengthy and subject to local customs authority discretion. No specific trade agreements currently exempt automobiles from general tariff treatment. Buyers operating as dealerships or fleet operators should confirm their classification with Iraqi customs, as duty treatment may vary by importer category. Verify with the destination's customs authority before shipping — duty rates vary by engine size, fuel type, and buyer category.
