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.


Pool figures as of October 2026, rounded down.
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.
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.
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.
plus 45+ more networks by AS number
Zain Iraq, Asiacell and Korek share the cellular market. Earthlink and many small networks sell home internet, and some of them deliver it over the air. On Resi Prime you choose a provider by AS number.

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.
Figures for the first month. Connections are slow in places, so budget for retries.
Car and flat prices differ widely between Baghdad and Erbil. A photo-free pass over the section needs about 15 GB.
Miswag and electronics shops reset promotions for holidays. Expect around 10 GB for two thousand image-free product cards.
Local brands run separate campaigns in Kurdistan and the south. A line with Erbil or Basra shows what a resident sees.
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.

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.
Many sites in Kurdistan are in Kurdish, written in Arabic or Latin script. Check encoding and text direction in your parser.
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.
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.
Iraqi IPs are a rarity in the open list. When it's empty, the page suggests Jordan, Kuwait or Turkey.

All countries and plansYes, Resi Prime has Erbil, Baghdad, Mosul, Karbala and over 25 more cities in 17 governorates.
Resi Core, from $0.49 per GB: the board is the same countrywide, and rotation spreads requests across addresses.
No, OpenSooq and Talabat run each country separately. For Kuwait, use Kuwait proxies.
Asia/Baghdad, UTC+3 all year, language ar-IQ, or ckb-IQ for Kurdistan. Check the profile on the anonymity check.
Move collection to the evening and turn on request retries. Resi Core rotation picks up a new address once the network returns.
Top up and set IQ in the line. Gigabytes come off one account for both plans and wait three months.
