Do I need a visa for Iraq from Netherlands?
Electronic authorization required
Travelling to Iraq on a Netherlands passport, you need an e-visa, applied for online before you travel.
| Requirement | e-Visa |
|---|---|
| Permitted stay once admitted | Not specified |
The application goes straight through evisa.iq before you fly. Keep in mind the Kurdistan Region runs its own e-visa system apart from federal Iraq's; landing at Erbil (EBL) rather than Baghdad (BGW) means applying through the regional portal instead.
Have the emailed approval on hand when you arrive; officers check it at passport control. It is worth submitting the application a few days ahead rather than right before departure.
