Chemical compliance in Iraq

Authority	Ministry of Environment
Seaports	Umm Qasr, Khor Al-Zubair
Airports	Baghdad (BGW), Basra (BSR)
Dangerous goods	IMDG by sea, IATA DGR by air

Many products need a Certificate of Conformity through Iraq's verification-of-conformity (VoC) programme before shipment, so check the requirement for your HS codes early. Hazardous and dual-use chemicals usually require ministry import approval, and APIs and medicines are regulated by the Ministry of Health, which generally asks for registration and batch testing. Security conditions affect routing and insurance, so agree the Incoterm and cover in advance. The Kurdistan Region may apply its own procedures for cargo entering through Erbil. Dangerous goods follow IMDG or IATA rules.

Questions

Specialty Chemicals for Iraq

Do you ship specialty chemicals to Iraq?

Yes. We ship by sea to Umm Qasr and Khor Al-Zubair, by air cargo or by express courier depending on quantity and urgency. Every lot carries a COA and a 16-section GHS SDS.

Which documents come with a specialty chemicals shipment to Iraq?

Commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of analysis and SDS as standard, plus the bill of lading or air waybill and a certificate of origin. Anything specific to Ministry of Environment is agreed with you at quote stage.

How long does delivery to Iraq take?

Allow 10–16 days for ocean transit or 3–6 days by air, plus packing, export clearance and import clearance. The timeline on this page shows each stage.

Can you supply industrial chemicals on a scheduled delivery plan?

Yes. For regular consumption we can agree a call-off schedule, for example monthly or quarterly shipments against an annual volume. This lets us plan production and reserve consistent lots. Share your forecast, pack type and destination port, and we will propose shipment intervals and Incoterms that fit your storage capacity.

Do you offer samples before a bulk order of a specialty chemical?

For most products we can send a representative sample so your team can test it in the actual process, such as a dyeing trial, a resin cure or a fragrance blend. Samples go by courier with an SDS. Once approved, the bulk lot is matched to the sample specification and the COA confirms it.
