Fact Sheet
Travel to the Kurdistan Region in Iraq

This fact sheet refers to the three governorates under the administration of the Kurdistan Regional
Government (KRG): Dohuk, Erbil and Suleimaniah.

THE KURDISTAN REGION IN IRAQ
With a population of nearly 4 million, the three governorates of Dohuk, Erbil and Suleimaniah cover about 40,000 square kilometres – four times the area of Lebanon and larger than that of the Netherlands.
The capital of the Region is Erbil, which locally is also known as Hawler. The next largest cities are Suleimaniah and Dohuk.
Since the establishment of the no-fly zone in 1991 and even more so since the liberation of Iraq in 2003, the
Kurdistan Region has undergone rapid development. Over 65% of the villages destroyed by Saddam Hussein’s regime have been rebuilt, two new airports have been opened and new highways, schools and hospitals are being constructed.
Foreign visitors are warmly welcomed. Among the growing number of visitors are international media and business people, as well as those returning from the Kurdish Diaspora.
While Middle Eastern customs of business, dress and behaviour are closely followed, Kurdistan is also progressive, pluralistic and relatively open.
SECURITY IN THE REGION
The security situation in the Kurdistan Region in Iraq is very different from the rest of Iraq. There are fewer than 200 US soldiers stationed in Kurdistan and not a single coalition soldier has lost their life in the Region since the start of the conflict. The official Regional guard, the Peshmerga forces, are highly trained and experienced in providing security. Working in close cooperation with the Regional Guard are the Asayish (the Security Police) and the regular Police, who provide comprehensive protection against threats and help with routine police matters.
To maintain the level of peace in Kurdistan, there are checkpoints on the borders and city perimeters.
Separate advice must be sought for travel outside of the Kurdistan Region. We also recommend that visitors consult travel advice issued by their country of domicile.
VISAS
Please check with your nearest Iraqi Embassy about visa requirements and the application process. The KRG
Representations abroad do not issue Iraqi visas, but can advise travellers on requirements. For advice on
visas, please email dfr@krg.org , uk@krg.org , or us@krg.org

FLIGHTS TO THE KURDISTAN REGION IN IRAQ
The Kurdistan Region has two international airports: Erbil International Airport and Suleimaniah International
Airport. Most flights operating from Europe and the Middle East fly directly to Kurdistan, without going via Baghdad. Several IATA members scheduled carriers already fly to Erbil, and more IATA airlines are expected to start flights there. Several charter companies also operate flights to Erbil or Suleimaniah.
Here are the links to the Erbil and Suleimaniah airports, which post fairly current flight schedules on their websites:
http://www.erbilairport.net/
http://www.sul-airport.com/
Below are the contact details and websites of the main airlines and flight operators serving the Kurdistan Region.

CHECKING IN AT ERBIL AND SULEIMANIAH INTERNATIONAL AIRPORTS
Passengers are advised to arrive at Erbil International Airport at least two and a half hours before departure,
to allow sufficient time to board the shuttle bus and go through security checkpoints to the departure terminal.

OVERLAND ROUTE TO THE KURDISTAN REGION
Overland entry into the Kurdistan Region is possible through Turkey. The suggested route is to fly to Istanbul
Ataturk Airport and then take a two-hour domestic flight to Diyarbakir. (Turkish visas can be obtained on
arrival at Istanbul Airport. Baggage may have to be retrieved from the International Terminal and checked in
at the Domestic Terminal.)
At Diyarbakir Airport taxis can be hired to drive to the Ibrahim Khalil/Habur border crossing point, Turkey’s
border with the Kurdistan Region in Iraq. Many drivers do this journey frequently and are familiar with the
route. It is advisable to settle the price beforehand, a guide price is USD 150, and to check that the driver has
the necessary paper work to take passengers over the border. Because of the journey time it is advisable to
start the overland journey in the early morning, staying overnight in Diyarbakir if necessary.
After crossing the border at Ibrahim Khalil, another taxi can take you to your destination in the Kurdistan
Region. The approximate journey time from Diyarbakir to the border is 4 hours; then from the border to Dohuk
is 1.5 hours; to Erbil 4 hours; and to Suleimaniah 6 hours. There are alternative routes via Iran and Syria but
these are less frequently travelled.

CURRENCY
The local currency is the Iraqi Dinar. US Dollars are also widely used. Exchange rates as of 3 May 2011:
1 US Dollar = 1,166 Iraqi Dinars
1 Euro = 1,724 Iraqi Dinars
1 British Pound = 1,922 Iraqi Dinars
(For up-to-date exchange rates please visit www.xe.com or www.oanda.com)
Please be aware that there are currently very few ATM machines or credit card facilities. Cash is the only
method of payment in the vast majority of shops, hotels and restaurants. Ensure you take enough
with you in US dollars or Iraqi dinars for all your expenses including the hotel bill. Exchange facilities
are available at the airport, international hotels and exchange shops in the bazaars.

WEATHER
Summer months (May-September) are very hot and dry, especially on the Erbil Plain, often reaching
temperatures as high as 50 degrees Celsius. It is slightly cooler in the evenings and in the mountainous
regions around Dohuk and Suleimaniah. The winter months can be cool with rain and some snowfall.

ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES
Note: Voltage is 220v. Both UK three-pronged and European two-pronged plugs are in use. Visitors are
advised to take a universal adapter with them. However, adapters can be purchased in small electrical shops
in the bazaars of towns and cities.

MOBILE PHONES
Asiacell, Korek, the Kurdistan Region’s largest mobile phone service operators, have roaming agreements
with several foreign operators, including European, US and UK companies. If you wish to use your mobile
locally please check with your mobile phone service operator whether it has a roaming agreement with
Asiacell or Korek. Roaming agreements can also be checked on the GSM Association website’s Iraq roaming
partners section: http://www.gsmworld.com/roaming/gsminfo/cou_iq.shtml
Rather than using your home mobile SIM card, it may be cheaper to buy a local SIM card which can be
purchased in some hotels and shops—especially in the bazaars. Top-up payment cards for local SIMs are
widely available in hotels and shops.

INTERNET CONNECTIONS
Internet connections are available in many hotels and some private internet cafes. Not all connections are
broadband speed.

POSTAL AND FREIGHT SERVICES
Letters and packages can be sent by normal post from the Kurdistan Region abroad, but at present they
cannot be sent from abroad to the Kurdistan Region. Fedex and DHL offer air freight services to and from
Kurdistan, please contact them for details.
The post office in Erbil is near the Citadel, close to the old court building. Please ask for directions. The Arabic
word for post, which is also used in Kurdish, is ‘bareed’.

TRANSPORTATION
Travel by car in the Kurdistan Region is very simple and generally safe. Private cars and drivers are
available, but they can often be quite expensive. Taxis are a far more economical option, and they are
readily available on most major roads in all the cities. A ride to or from almost anywhere in the cities normally
costs somewhere between 3-5,000 ID, and you can catch a seat in a shared taxi between any of the major
cities for 10-25,000 ID depending on the distance—just ask a city taxi driver “garajee + the name of city/town
where you want to go”.2
There are generally two types of taxis in the cities. Some are painted orange and white, while others are
painted a light tan colour. The light tan taxis are driven by government vetted drivers, and they are
considered to be safest—these cars are usually newer and cleaner also.

TRAVEL & DISTANCE BETWEEN CITIES
Erbil to Suleimaniah – 170 km, approx. three hours drive
Erbil to Dohuk – 245 km, approx. three hours drive

Dohuk to Suleimaniah – 340 km, approx. five hours drive

TIME DIFFERENCE

The Kurdistan Region and the rest of Iraq are +3 hours ahead of Greenwich Meantime (GMT).

NATIONAL HOLIDAYS
A list of national holidays and important dates is available here:
http://www.krg.org/articles/detail.asp?rnr=139&lngnr=12&smap=03010200&anr=18627

INTERNATIONAL NEWS
Satellite television with CNN and BBC World is available in most hotels. The main regional English-language
newspapers are the Kurdish Globe and AK News.

FOOD AND DRINK
Kurdish cuisine is based on lamb, chicken, rice and bread, and the use of many fresh herbs and vegetables.
Fish served in restaurants is often barbecued over an open fire to make a traditional Iraqi dish called
mazgouf. Fresh fruit or paklava, a Middle Eastern flaky pastry and nut dessert, is usually served after the
main course. While many types of fruit and vegetables are available throughout the year, seasonal and local
products, such as wild asparagus, native rhubarb, green almonds and buffalo yoghurt, are highly prized and
enjoyed. Black tea with sugar is the most popular beverage both inside and outside the home. Drinking
alcohol in moderation is acceptable in some restaurants and hotels. Drunken and loud behaviour is frowned
upon.
For example: if you are in Suleimaniah and you want to go to Erbil (Hawler), say “Garajee Hawler.” For the reverse
trip you would say, “Garajee Suleimaniah.”

KURDISH PHRASES
There are two dialects of Kurdish spoken in the Kurdistan Region in Iraq: Kurmanji, spoken mainly in Dohuk,
and Sorani, spoken in Erbil and Suleimaniah.

In cazul in care doriti sa mergeti cu masina in Kuristan e bine sa luati in calul toate amanuntele

Distanta Bucuresti – Erbil 2650km

– plecare dimineata la 6

– Bulgaria este destul de incurcata chiar pentru un sofer obisnuit sa calatoreasca afara. Este bine sa aiba un copilot cu harta. din auzite nu se recomanda folosirea navigatie. Pentru a evita amenzile e bine sa nu depasisti viteza legala. Oricum e bine sa aveti la dumneavostra de cate 10 euro pentru orice eventualitate, adica diverse taxe.

In Turcia cand intrii pe autostrada la turci trebuie sa cumperi un card pe care il vei tot folosi ca mijloc de masurare a costului tau de autostada – in loc de tichetul care se ia in tarile europene folosesti acest card

– Recomandat sa ajungi undeva pana in ora 2 in Istanbul. Daca ajungi mai tarziu iti va lua foarte mult sa traversezi podul peste Bosfor

– Istanbul – Ankara
– Se poate opri dupa Ankara care este la 1.100km pe la ora 11 noaptea dar  daca se pleaca tarziu si i-a cca 3 ore sa traversez Istanbulul
– normal ar trebui sa va opriti la Aksaray care este la jumatatea drumului
– apoi a doua zi Adana – Gaziantep – Viransehir – Silope care este o parte foarte  buna autostrada dar apoi drum simplu cu 2 benzi
– cand ajungi in frontiera vei vedea o coada lunga de tiruri, trebuie sa le ocolesti si sa mergi pe o banda despartita de niste separatoare de beton. Sa nu cumva sa intri pe la tiruri ca vei iesi de acolo dupa 3 zile
– procedurile in vama irakiana dureaza cam 1 ora pentru toate formalitatile necesare la masina. Vor opri pasaportul soferului daca masina este mai veche de 2 ani si 500 USD garantie care va fi recuperata la iesire . Trebuie sa platesti vreo 50 usd.
– benzina sau motorina este f scumpa in Turcia peste 2 euro pe litru benzina si motorina parca 2 euro
– dupa ce iesi din vama mergi vreo 500m si trebuie sa faci dreapta spre Dohuk. Este un check point acolo
– daca este noapte cand esti in Duhok iti recomand sa ramai in Duhok sau sa comanzi un taxi care sa mearga in fata voastra pana la Erbil. Riscul este mare sa te pierzi si sa ajungi la Mosul
– atentie la intrarea in Dohuk sa nu o luati spre Mosul

Daca exista graba e bine sa se mearga cu 2 piloti care sa conduca pe rand.

Costul estimativ al unei deplasari cu masina in 1.500 USD.

Cam atat. Drum bun.
