Travel Advice, Consular Registration and Passports

The Embassy strongly encourages all Australians visiting or living in Iraq to consult our Travel Advice and to register on-line at www.orao.dfat.gov.au
For information on applying for an Australian passport, please go to our Services for Australians section.

Due to the difficult security environment, the Australian Embassy's ability to provide consular and passport services is limited, particularly outside Baghdad.

For Notarial or Australian Passport Renewals, the concerning person(s) must attend the Australian Embassy Chancery which is located in the International Zone (IZ). The applicant must send in advance a coloured copy of the Iraqi ID (Jensiya) or Passport to the Embassy's Email Address at Austemb.Baghdad@dfat.gov.au along with your Mobile Phone Number for the purposes of obtaining the official approvals for entering the IZ by the Iraqi Security Authorities. Please note this process of approvals may take 7-10 days before and interview can take place with Embassy Consular staff.
