Have your valid passport and the entry permission appropriate to your trip ready. For a federal Iraqi eVisa, the Iraqi Ministry of Interior eVisa portal says to print the visa received by email and show it at border control. Its application guidance also calls for a valid passport. Do not assume a submitted application is an approved visa.
The documents you need depend on your citizenship, passport or travel document type, purpose, entry point and route. Check with the relevant Iraqi authority and your airline before travel. Ask about visa validity, permitted stay and entries, any additional documents, and whether your intended crossings and route are open and permitted. We could not verify a universal document list or the format required for a Kurdistan Region visa.
For a connection, ask the airline whether you will remain airside or pass immigration into the landside area, and which documents it will check before boarding. A visa does not guarantee admission.
