Exporters from around the world are taking advantage of Iraq’s demand for imported goods. In 2020 alone, India exported over $1.6 billion worth of goods to Iraq, which is expected to grow in the upcoming years. There is a high demand for Indian goods, including:

• Rice
• Frozen Bovine Meat
• Medicaments
• Tea
• Electronics

The Iraqi Central Organization for Standardization and Quality Control (COSQC) requires a Certificate of Conformity (CoC) for over 1,000 products across twelve categories. Indian exporters/importers trading with Iraq must comply with the Iraqi regulations to avoid delays, penalties, or shipments being returned.
