✈️ Tunisia needs no visa for an Iraqi passport. You land, you enter, and you stay 15 days free. There is one rule most people miss though: the exemption is once every 180 days. If you want longer than 15 days, you need an embassy visa before you travel.

The rule that catches people out: the free 15 day entry is available once every 180 days. Come back before those 180 days are up and the exemption does not apply again, so you will need an embassy visa.

💰 Visa types and cost

💡 Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months from the date you enter, not from the date you book.

📄 What you need

  • ✅ Iraqi passport valid at least 6 months from your entry date
  • ✅ Return ticket
  • ✅ Hotel booking or your address in Tunisia
  • ✅ Proof you can support yourself
  • ✅ A clear reason for the visit

🚀 How to apply

  1. Check you have not already used the exemption in the last 180 days
  2. Check your passport is valid 6 months from your entry date
  3. Book a return flight and a hotel
  4. If 15 days is enough, just fly in and get stamped at the airport
  5. If you need longer, apply at the Tunisian embassy before you travel
  6. Keep your hotel booking and return ticket to hand, border officers can ask for them
