Customs and VAT for Iraq
Iraq has no standard VAT system — instead a 15% general sales tax applies to imported goods. Customs rates follow the Iraqi schedule (0–40% by category). Shipments up to ~50 USD (~€48) are generally duty-free. GDPC (General Directorate of Customs) manages clearance. DHL and FedEx operate in Baghdad and Erbil (Kurdistan). The security situation is unstable outside the main cities — shipments beyond Baghdad and Erbil are very risky. Label shipments in detail in Arabic.
