Customs in Iraq
When sending to Iraq, there are no exemptions or allowances in customs and duties, which means that every shipment that enters the country will have to pass through customs clearance and will have customs and duties applied. When this is the case, these fees are the responsibility of the recipient of the parcel, and the package will not be released from customs until they are paid.
Parcelcompare's booking system automatically adds all the paperwork required to your booking, so as long as you properly fill out your booking on our site, you shouldn't have any problems.

Collection & delivery
Courier collection
As long as you book in good time, ParcelCompare will be able to collect your parcel on that same day from most locations in the UK and Iraq. If your parcel is particularly large or heavy, however, you will need to book a day in advance.
You can make use of your local drop-off points. These are normally a small business – like a corner shop – where you can drop your parcel off at your convenience. This is a cheaper option too, and we pass the savings on to you.
Iraq delivery
As standard, most ParcelCompare partner couriers will attempt to make three deliveries in Iraq before the parcel will be returned to the sender.
Deliveries will be attempted between 9am and 7pm on normal working days, (Please note that that Iraq's weekend begins on Friday). We will not deliver on the weekend or bank holidays, so take that into account when making your booking. You can pick a delivery slot by taking advantage of our timed delivery services.
Tracking shipments to Iraq
When you send a parcel to Iraq, it is scanned on every step of the journey. This keeps us up to date with your package, and we make sure that you are also kept informed with our free door-to-door tracking.
And if there is a problem with your parcel, we'll get in touch with you and your recipient to explain the problem, and how to go about rectifying it. Your scans will show us exactly what the issue is, which makes it easy to go about sorting it out.

Packaging your parcel
We send thousands of packages safely every week, but to make sure that your goods arrive in the best possible condition, it's important to make sure you properly package them.
TThere are three main points to keep in mind when packaging your goods:
1. GET A STURDY BOX
Make sure you're using a strong box. A new double corrugated box, is best, as an older box may have weaknesses that could lead to your box being crushed in transit.
2. PACK THE CONTENTS
Each of your goods should be wrapped individually before being placed into your box. They should be surrounded with packaging material so they are not touching the walls of your box.
3. SEAL IT UP
Strong packaging tape helps protect your box's weak points. Wrap three times around your box in a Union Flag pattern, with extra tape on the corners and seals. Add your labels so that the barcode is clearly visible.
Holidays and gift giving occasions in Iraq
There's a lot to love about holidays; days off during the week, gifts and delicious food. However, if you're thinking of sending a present to someone you know in Iraq it's important to remember that public holidays also halt the collection and delivery of parcels.
So if you're planning to ship around the dates that we've gathered below, bear in mind that you will have to send a day or two early to avoid disappointment. Please also bear in mind that the weekend begins on Friday in Iraq, and deliveries are only made Sunday to Thursday.
