Iraqi Proxies per GB: Baghdad, Mosul, Erbil and Basra

Iraqi addresses work on two plans. Resi Prime puts the exit in one of 17 governorates or a city such as Baghdad or Erbil, and the cheaper Resi Core hops between home IPs all over Iraq. One balance covers both, and traffic keeps for three months.

A big country on smartphones

The 2024 census counted about 46.1 million people in Iraq. The largest cities are Baghdad, Mosul, Basra and Erbil. People browse listings on OpenSooq, shop on Miswag and call taxis through Baly.

Governorates and Kurdistan

The country is divided into governorates, and Erbil, Sulaymaniyah and Duhok form the autonomous Kurdistan Region. The map shows 18 governorates. People live along the Tigris and Euphrates from Mosul to Basra, while the desert west with Anbar is sparsely populated.

Map: governorates of Iraq

Resi Prime targets a governorate or city: Baghdad, Mosul, Erbil, Karbala and over 25 more cities. For the whole country, the code IQ is enough.

OpenSooq, Miswag and the news need no city, so take Resi Core. Talabat, Baly and city search require Resi Prime: the Baghdad storefront looks nothing like the Erbil one.

How much traffic Iraq takes

Figures for the first month. Connections are slow in places, so budget for retries.

Resi Core

OpenSooq listings

Car and flat prices differ widely between Baghdad and Erbil. A photo-free pass over the section needs about 15 GB.

Resi Core

Online store prices

Miswag and electronics shops reset promotions for holidays. Expect around 10 GB for two thousand image-free product cards.

Resi Prime

Ads by city

Local brands run separate campaigns in Kurdistan and the south. A line with Erbil or Basra shows what a resident sees.

Resi Prime

Profiles with an Arabic locale

Asia/Baghdad, language ar-IQ or ckb-IQ. With a Resi Prime session, the profile logs in from one address while the device stays online.

The Iraqi internet and proxies

Exam-day shutdowns

For years now the authorities have cut the internet in the mornings during school final exams, sometimes nationwide, sometimes only in the south or Kurdistan. During those weeks, schedule collection for the evening.

Arabic and Kurdish

Many sites in Kurdistan are in Kurdish, written in Arabic or Latin script. Check encoding and text direction in your parser.

Free Iraqi proxies

Iraq has entries in the open list at times, each living a few hours. That's enough for a test and not for regular collection.

Rules and data

Work with open pages: prices, listings, search results. Leave people's contacts and closed sections alone, since those make it easier to break local rules.

Questions about Iraq proxies

01Can I pick Erbil apart from Baghdad?

Yes, Resi Prime has Erbil, Baghdad, Mosul, Karbala and over 25 more cities in 17 governorates.

02What should I take for OpenSooq?

Resi Core, from $0.49 per GB: the board is the same countrywide, and rotation spreads requests across addresses.

03Will an Iraqi IP show Kuwaiti prices?

No, OpenSooq and Talabat run each country separately. For Kuwait, use Kuwait proxies.

04What zone and locale suit Iraq?

Asia/Baghdad, UTC+3 all year, language ar-IQ, or ckb-IQ for Kurdistan. Check the profile on the anonymity check.

05What do I do during exam shutdowns?

Move collection to the evening and turn on request retries. Resi Core rotation picks up a new address once the network returns.

Iraq via proxy: launch with 10 GB

Top up and set IQ in the line. Gigabytes come off one account for both plans and wait three months.
