Find tips and advice on Iraq from Swedish Expats

Of course, expat living in Iraq is not just about shipping your belongings and filing in some bureaucratic papers. Regular socializing with fellow Swedish is an essential part of expat life and becoming accustomed to the Iraqi way of life and mentality. InterNations helps you connect and meet up with other Swedish in Iraq, residing in Baghdad, Basra, Mosul and many other places throughout the country. Just take a look at our group of Swedish in Baghdad.

If you ever wish to have a chat in your Swedish native language, discover where to shop for Swedish food or discuss the Tre Kronor latest match, become a member of the Iraqi InterNations Community:

  • Look up our top quality network to get to know open-minded expats from Sweden or Swedish-speaking expatriates in Iraq.
  • Obtain and share insider tips in our Iraq Expat Forums – e.g. how to hire a Swedish-speaking babysitter for your children or where to buy cinnamon whirls, lingonberry jam and hjortebakkels in Baghdad.
  • Search the InterNations Expat Guide for Iraq to get information on the local Scandinavian Women’s Association or the nearest Swedish consulate.

From the fertile, settled lands of former Mesopotamia to the small coastline bordering the Persian Gulf, we’ll help you connect with supportive and friendly Swedish expats in Iraq.

Join our expat activities and mingle with fellow Swedish in Iraq

Moreover, please feel free to attend our regular expat events and activities in Iraq. Our get-togethers include diverse interests and range from a cozy gathering to enjoy the traditional Iraqi masgouf, to big expat celebrations with hundreds of participants in Baghdad’s best locations. You can also participate in one of our expat trips to go and see the vast Iraqi desert as well as other beautiful landmarks in Iraq.

Our meet-ups and activities are a great opportunity to mingle with expats from Sweden and various other countries in a casual setting. Interested? Just send us your membership application and you’ll soon be receiving a cordial Välkommen & Velkommen from our Swedish living in Iraq!
