Overstay penalty
Check with the embassy for overstay penalties.A fine of IQD 500,000 to 3,000,000 (roughly USD 380 to 2,300) applies, the range depending on nationality and authority discretion rather than a flat rate, alongside a possible temporary entry ban of up to 2 years for serious cases; an overstayer must also apply in person for an exit visa at the Residency Office, a process that cannot be completed at the airport.
