🇮🇶 Does an Iraqi need a visa for Thailand 🇹🇭?
Yes, online (e-Visa). Iraqi passport holders need a visa for Thailand, and it can be applied for online as an e-Visa before travelling.
Rule updated from Wikipedia's “Visa requirements for Iraqi citizens” (checked 2026-10-04); the older passport-index dataset (January 2025) listed Visa required. Entry rules change: confirm with the embassy of Thailand or its official government website before you travel.
What this means for your trip
An e-Visa is applied for on the destination's official government website. You upload your passport scan and photo, pay online and receive an approval letter by email.
Apply well before departure and print the approval; use only the official portal, as many look-alike sites charge extra.
Your passport should normally be valid for at least six months beyond your planned departure date and have blank pages for stamps; many countries apply this rule.

Plugs and voltage
Some of your plugs fit (C); for type G plugs bring a travel adapter for Thailand's sockets (A, B, C, F). Mains voltage differs (Thailand: 220 V; Iraq: 230 V): most phone and laptop chargers accept 100–240 V, but single-voltage devices such as some hair dryers need a converter.
