Market information

The MEA fully supports UK relations with Erbil and strongly encourage British companies to pursue business as normal in the Kurdish marketplace. There is a wealth of opportunities, and great demand for British expertise. Kurdistan has a growing and influential private sector with strong links to Central and Southern Iraq.

The Kurds are Indo-European, not Arab, and Kurdistan Region has flourished under its own semi-autonomous leadership since the end of the Anglo-US invasion. Its major trading partner is Turkey, but EU countries have played a leading role in the Region’s development.

The FCO Travel Advice currently advises against all but essential travel to Erbil and is distinguished from wider Iraq. The security situation is however fluid and FCO guidance should be closely monitored by delegate companies.
