Courts in Baghdad (General Information)

Baghdad's courts are divided between two appellate districts: the Presidency of the Baghdad/Rusafa Federal Court of Appeal and the Presidency of the Baghdad/Karkh Federal Court of Appeal. Each includes courts of various jurisdictions (first instance, personal status, misdemeanour, felony, investigation, labour and others). The court with territorial jurisdiction is determined by the jurisdiction rules in the law according to the type of case.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: Where is a labour case filed in Baghdad?

Labour disputes are heard by the competent labour court; one or more labour courts are established in each governorate (Labour Law, Article 165). In termination-of-service cases, the worker may instead choose to apply to the termination-of-service committee, within 30 days of being notified of the termination (Article 46). A worker bringing a claim is exempt from court costs, and labour cases are treated as urgent (Article 166). (Details on the Iraqi Labour Law page)

Q2: How do I choose a lawyer in Baghdad?

Rather than relying on general rankings, these practical questions can help:

  1. Does the lawyer work on your type of case (labour, civil, criminal, corporate…)?
  2. Does the lawyer explain the procedures, time limits and possible outcomes clearly, without promising a guaranteed result?
  3. Are the terms of the engagement set out clearly in writing?
  4. Is the power of attorney limited to the subject of the case?
Q3: Where are companies registered in Baghdad?
