Iraq Expat Events

Embark on Iraq Expats Life

From Lower Mesopotamia, the cradle of ancient civilizations to the vast Iraqi desert, Iraq has much to offer to expatriates, tourists and travelers from all over the world. However, the growing expat Iraq community is mainly attracted by its economic challenges, e.g. in the petro sector, and the urban development in Baghdad and Mosul. Expat living in Iraq surely can face a challenge once in a while, but at the same time it is a wonderful intercultural experience you will never forget.

The Network for like-minded Expatriates in Iraq

In our social network, you can easily get in touch with other expatriates living in Iraq in a private and protected environment where trust, confidence and friendly ‘netiquette’ are essentials. You may ask other expat members from Iraq’s international community about insider tips, e.g. how to obtain a work permit. Moreover, you’ll also meet your fellow expatriates in Iraq in real life at our top-quality InterNations Get-Togethers – the best way for casual socializing in the capital city and other places like Basra or Mosul for all members of the Iraq expat community.
