Iraq Tenders | مناقصات العراق & Government Bids
Find reliable Iraq tenders, Iraqi government bids, RFPs and eProcurement opportunities with TendersArabia. We help contractors, suppliers and consultants access high value business opportunities across Iraq's growing reconstruction and development market.
Iraq represents one of the Middle East's most promising procurement markets, driven by massive infrastructure reconstruction, energy expansion and post-conflict development. Whether you are a construction firm in Baghdad, an oil & gas supplier in Basra, or a consultancy in Erbil (Kurdistan Region), TendersArabia delivers verified Iraq tenders and contract awards tailored to your business.
Why Choose TendersArabia for Iraq Tenders?
Iraq's public procurement system has undergone significant modernisation with the introduction of the New Iraq Public Contracts Instruction No. 1 of 2025 (2025 Instruction), effective from 17 February 2026. This new framework replaces the previous 2014 Instruction and introduces a unified electronic platform for announcements and tenders, improving transparency and efficiency.
At TendersArabia, we aggregate and simplify access to these opportunities so you can focus on bidding and winning contracts instead of searching multiple sources.
Key features of Iraq's 2025 procurement framework include:
- Unified Electronic Platform: All government tenders are published on a centralised public procurement portal.
- Four Tender Methods: Limited tender, two stage tender, direct invitation (minimum 3 prequalified bidders) and single invitation (with Central Committee approval).
- Iraqi Law Requirement: All contracts must be governed by Iraqi law, with Iraqi courts as default dispute resolution.
- Contract Value Tiers: Approval authority varies by value minor contracts (< IQD 50M), medium (IQD 50M-1B), major (> IQD 1B requiring Minister or Council of Ministers approval).
Key Benefits of Our Iraq Tenders Service
- Comprehensive Coverage: Access tenders from federal ministries, state owned enterprises, provincial governments and the Kurdistan Regional Government.
- Advanced Search Filters: Filter by sector, region (Baghdad, Basra, Erbil, Mosul, etc.), value and deadline.
- Daily Updates: Fresh tender notices, amendments and contract award information.
- Bilingual Support: Content in English and Arabic (مناقصات العراق) for local and international businesses.
- Budget Verification Alerts: Get notified about Iraq's "1/12th Rule" funding constraints to avoid bidding on unfunded projects.
Popular Sectors for Iraq Tenders
Businesses actively search for Iraq construction tenders and other opportunities in the following high demand areas:
- Infrastructure & Reconstruction: Roads, bridges, schools, hospitals, housing projects and water treatment facilities.
- Oil & Gas: Equipment supply, pipeline construction, refinery maintenance and petroleum services (مناقصات وزارة النفط العراقية).
- Energy & Power: Power plant construction, transmission lines, substations and renewable energy projects.
- Medical & Healthcare: Hospital equipment, pharmaceutical procurement, medical devices and PPE tenders.
- Defense & Security: Supply of security equipment and military devices (excluded from 2025 Instruction, handled separately).
- Consultancy & Engineering: Project management, design, supervision and technical assistance services.
Understanding Iraq's Fiscal Reality: The 1/12th Rule
One of the most critical factors for contractors bidding on Iraq government tenders in early 2026 is the "1/12th Rule" under the Financial Management Law No. 6 of 2019. Until a new government is formed and the 2026 budget is passed, ministries can only spend one twelfth of the previous year's actual expenditure per month.
What this means for bidders:
- Fundable: Salaries, operational expenses, existing contractual commitments and debt service.
- NOT Fundable: New capital investment projects, new contract awards requiring fresh budget allocation, expansion of existing programs, or advance payments on new projects.
Practical advice: Before bidding on any new Iraqi bids RFP RFQ, verify whether funding is available from 2025 operational carryover or if the project requires 2026 budget allocation. This distinction prevents costly delays.
Keywords Search for Iraq eTenders
Contractors and suppliers in Iraq and internationally commonly use these search terms:
- Iraq tenders / مناقصات العراق
- Iraq government tenders / مناقصات حكومية العراق
- Iraq construction tenders
- Iraqi public procurement
- مناقصات وزارة النفط العراقية (Iraq Ministry of Oil tenders)
- Iraq RFP / RFQ Iraq
- Iraq eprocurement
Local Iraqi contractors predominantly search using Arabic keywords such as "مناقصات العراق" (Iraq tenders) and "مناقصات حكومية" (government tenders), while international suppliers prefer English terms. Our platform optimizes for both to maximize visibility and reach.
Tender Procedures Under Iraq's 2025 Public Contracts Instruction
The 2025 Instruction establishes four methods for public procurement:
1. Limited Tender: Used when there is limited availability of goods or suppliers. Authorities announce for potential participants, evaluate qualifications and select two qualified participants to submit tenders.
2. Two Stage Tender: For projects with uncertain scopes of work. Stage 1 invites participants to submit "solutions" for a concept. Stage 2 invites a minimum of two acceptable bidders to submit commercial bids based on their own design.
3. Direct Invitation: Authorities issue direct invitations to a minimum of three prequalified contractors/consultants registered on the unified electronic platform. Used for confidential projects, strategic projects requiring foreign expertise, or when prior bids failed.
4. Single Invitation: Issued with Central Committee approval for OEM limitations, state security contracts, or emergencies.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Iraq Tenders (مناقصات العراق) refer to all government and public sector bidding opportunities released by Iraqi authorities, including federal ministries, state-owned enterprises, provincial governments, and the Kurdistan Regional Government. These include construction tenders, infrastructure projects, goods supply, services, and consultancy contracts published through Iraq's unified electronic procurement platform under the Public Contracts Instruction No. 1 of 2025.
You can find the latest Iraq tenders and مناقصات حكومية العراق on a reliable platform like TendersArabia. We aggregate and update tenders daily from Iraqi ministries including Oil, Electricity, Construction & Housing, Municipalities, and the Baghdad Secretariat. Our platform also covers opportunities from the Kurdistan Regional Government (Erbil, Sulaymaniyah, Dohuk)
The New Iraq Public Contracts Instruction No. 1 of 2025 (2025 Instruction) became effective on 17 February 2026, replacing the previous 2014 Instruction. Key changes include: a unified electronic platform for all tender announcements, four standardized tender methods, strict Iraqi law governance for all contracts and enhanced transparency requirements. The 2025 Instruction applies to new tenders and contracts signed from 17 February 2026 onwards.
Yes. Many Iraq government tenders are open to foreign suppliers and contractors. The 2025 Instruction explicitly allows direct invitations for strategic/large projects requiring foreign expertise. However, participants must meet eligibility criteria, register on Iraq's unified electronic platform and comply with Iraqi law. International bidders should also be aware that contracts must be governed by Iraqi law with Iraqi courts as default dispute resolution, though arbitration may be possible under strict conditions.
The 1/12th Rule under Iraq's Financial Management Law No. 6 of 2019 restricts government spending during government formation periods. Until a new government is formed and the 2026 budget is passed, ministries can only spend one twelfth of the previous year's expenditure per month. This means new capital projects and new contract awards requiring fresh budget allocation cannot be funded until the budget is approved. We advise verifying funding availability before bidding on any new Iraqi tenders in early 2026.
Under Iraq's procurement framework, approval authority depends on contract value:
- Minor contracts (below IQD 50 million): Department head approval
- Medium contracts (IQD 50 million - 1 billion): Director General approval
- Major contracts (above IQD 1 billion): Minister or Council of Ministers approval
Federal Iraq tenders are governed by the Public Contracts Instruction No. 1 of 2025 and administered through the unified electronic platform under the Ministry of Planning. The Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) maintains a separate procurement framework for its provinces (Erbil, Sulaymaniyah, Dohuk). TendersArabia covers both systems, allowing you to access opportunities across all of Iraq.
Register on TendersArabia and subscribe to our premium plan. You will receive daily email alerts for Iraq tenders, مناقصات العراق and matching opportunities based on your selected sectors, regions (Baghdad, Basra, Erbil, etc.) and keywords including Iraq construction tenders and Iraqi bids RFP RFQ.

Major cities like Baghdad, Basra, Erbil and Mosul regularly release large value tenders.
