An update reaches you at every stage of the shipment until final receipt, so you are never left waiting without news.
We ship to Iraq whole-home furniture and appliances, personal effects and students’ boxes, commercial cargo and exhibition supplies, and heavy or delicate pieces that need wooden crates and special securing inside the container.

We ship vehicles to Iraq — RoRo or container
Iraq is one of the destinations we move cars to regularly, through the Arar and Jadidat Arar crossings. We recommend the most economical method for your car’s value and the arrival port, and prepare the entry documents before departure, not after the vehicle arrives.
- RoRo: The vehicle drives on by its own wheels — the most economical for used cars.
- Container: Secured with four straps and chocks under the tyres — more protective for luxury and classic cars.
- Triptyque: Temporary-entry procedures and release documents ready before shipping.
What sets shipping to Iraq apart
The nature of the route
A land route through the Arar crossing, with most shipments being commercial goods, materials and equipment. Scheduling matters more than speed here, as traffic at the crossing changes.
What its customs look at
Iraq requires complete documents before the truck reaches the crossing, not after, and anything missing means a long wait. We review your whole file before moving.
What we ship there most
- Commercial goods
- Building materials
- Equipment and machinery
- Furniture
A tip from experience
We strongly advise putting the document file in order at least a week before shipping on this route in particular.
