Revolut cards and debit cards work most reliably for Iraq e-visa payments, while credit cards tend to have more issues. Before applying, make sure to enable online payments with your bank and ensure your account balance is sufficient to cover the visa fees ($164 USD for tourist visas or $114 USD for certain nationalities). If a payment fails, wait 24 hours before trying again, and consider using a different card if the problem persists. Payment failures are one of the most common issues causing delays in visa processing. For more tips on successful visa applications, see our Complete Visa Guide.
