Iraq visa for Australian citizens
Iraq Visa for Australian Citizens
Australian passport holders can apply for an Iraq visa online through this assistance service. Australia is in Group A, which means faster processing and a choice between a 30-day and a 60-day visa option.
Quick answer
Can Australian citizens apply for an Iraq visa online?
Yes. Australian citizens holding a valid Australian passport can apply for an Iraq eVisa online without visiting an embassy or arranging a sponsor. Applications are typically processed within 6 to 72 hours.
Australia is in Group A, the faster processing category. Group A applicants may choose between a 30-day and a 60-day visa option. Use the eligibility tool to confirm the route for any other passport.
Nationality & residence
Eligibility follows your passport nationality, not your residence
Your eligibility for the online route is determined by the nationality printed on the passport you will travel on — not your country of residence, place of birth, or any other citizenship you may hold. If you hold more than one passport, use the one you intend to enter Iraq with, and apply using that passport’s nationality.
Australia is in Group A under this service. If you are unsure which passport to use, check the route for each nationality with our eligibility tool before you start.

Processing time
How long does it take?
Australia is in Group A, the faster processing category.
6 to 72 hours
Typical processing window for Group A
Processing starts after payment is completed and all required information and documents have been received. These are estimates, not guarantees, and can be affected by document quality, completeness, additional review and public holidays. Apply with comfortable time to spare before travel.
Entry validity & permitted stay
Validity for entry is not the same as permitted stay
Two different concepts that both follow the visa actually issued.
Validity for entry
The window in which you may use the visa to enter Iraq. The 30-Day option is valid for entry within 90 days from issue; the 60-Day option within 60 days from issue.
Permitted stay
How long you may remain in Iraq after arrival. The 30-Day option allows up to 30 days; the 60-Day option allows up to 60 days.
Choosing your stay
How to choose between the 30-day and 60-day option
Group A applicants choose between a 30-day and a 60-day visa. Pick the option that covers your intended visit with a comfortable margin.
Choose based on how long you plan to stay in Iraq, not on how long the visa remains valid for entry. The permitted stay cannot be extended by picking a longer entry window — the two are separate concepts.
- 30-Day Tourist & Visit Visa — stay up to 30 days after arrival; valid for entry within 90 days of issue. Suited to shorter visits.
- 60-Day Ordinary Visa — stay up to 60 days after arrival; valid for entry within 60 days of issue. Suited to longer stays.
If your plans change after the visa is issued, check the entry window on your document. The 30-day option allows entry within 90 days of issue; the 60-day option within 60 days of issue. If your new dates fall outside that window, contact support before you travel.
