Visit Iraq's travel guidance says there is no specific tipping system for services outside restaurants. It says a small amount is acceptable as thanks for good service. For guides, drivers and hotel staff, treat this as general guidance rather than a set amount: a small tip is acceptable for good service, but no specific system is stated. If you choose to tip, ask the provider or hotel whether any gratuity is already included.
