The forum, organized by Iraq’s Ministry of Trade in cooperation with the European Union and the Federation of Iraqi Chambers of Commerce, brought together representatives of public administration, business support institutions and the private sector. The program focused on the prospects for economic development in Iraq, investment and international cooperation. An important part of the event also included presentations on the regulatory and administrative requirements for doing business in Iraq, covering company registration procedures, the tax system and documentation requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PAIH was represented by Katarzyna Szczot from the agency’s Foreign Expansion Support Office (Africa and Middle East team) and Jaros\u0142aw Al Abbas, head of the PAIH Foreign Trade Office in Riyadh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the visit, the agency’s representatives also met with Polish Ambassador to Baghdad Wojciech Bo\u017cek to discuss structuring cooperation in support of Polish businesses, tools for strengthening economic ties and opportunities to expand Poland’s business presence in Iraq.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The visit to Baghdad confirmed that Iraq’s reconstruction process and the scale of the country’s development challenges create significant opportunities for foreign partners, including Polish companies. These needs span key sectors of the economy, including infrastructure, security, agriculture, food processing, energy and environmental protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Discussions with representatives of the Iraqi administration, including the Ministry of Environment, provided an opportunity to explore cooperation in areas where Polish expertise and technological capabilities could address Iraq’s specific needs. These include efficient water resource management, modernization of the agri-food sector and the implementation of solutions supporting the green transition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another important part of the visit was a meeting with the Polish-Iraqi Business Council. Discussions focused on prospects for expanding bilateral economic relations, identifying new areas of cooperation and exploring instruments to help increase the presence of Polish companies in the Iraqi market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Iraq is a market whose potential should be assessed from a long-term perspective. The scale of investment needs, ongoing reforms and demand for technology and know-how create opportunities for Polish companies across a range of sectors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
