Businesses in Iraq

Iraq is one of the largest markets in the Arab world by population, with a rapidly rebuilding private sector across trade, construction, energy services, telecoms and retail. Business activity centres on Baghdad, the southern commercial hub of Basra, and the fast-growing cities of the Kurdistan Region such as Erbil and Sulaymaniyah, along with Najaf, Karbala and Mosul.

Companies register with the Companies Registrar under the relevant authorities, and in the Kurdistan Region through its own registration bodies. Arabic is the main language nationally, with Kurdish widely used in the north; English appears in the energy, technology and international-trade sectors.
