Saudi Arabia passport holders need an eVisa to enter Iraq. You apply online, upload a passport scan and a photo, pay the fee and receive the visa by email. Apply at least one to two weeks before your trip and print the approval — some airlines and border officers ask to see it on paper.
The main option is the Iraq e-Visa.
Whatever your visa status, Iraq applies the same entry conditions to every traveller:
Iraq lets 1 passport in without a visa, issues eVisas to 47 and requires an embassy visa from 150. Saudi Arabia citizens are treated the same way as Bahrain, China, Israel, Japan and Jordan. Overall the Saudi Arabia passport ranks #101 in the world with 55 visa-free destinations.
Planning a longer trip in Asia? With a Saudi Arabia passport you can also visit 20 countries in the region without a visa, including United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, China, Hong Kong, Iran, Jordan, Kyrgyzstan and Kuwait.
In the other direction, Iraq citizens need a visa to visit Saudi Arabia.
