Progress on Customs Automation in Iraq, 19 OCT
Progress on Customs Automation in Iraq
Prime Minister Mohammed Shia Al-Sudani chaired a meeting to review customs automation and network integration progress.
Representatives from the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) attended the meeting.
Detailed reports on the first phase of implementing the global system for customs automation and modernization, known as ASYCUDA (Automated System for Customs Data), were discussed during the meeting. The reports focused on the challenges faced during the implementation process and the solutions devised. The goal of the implementation is to unify customs procedures and issue electronic permits through comprehensive information technology. The reports also emphasized the importance of data exchange and the ultimate goal of establishing a single window for foreign trade.
The Prime Minister has instructed to complete the financial commitments for the first phase and provide the necessary infrastructure to ensure the success of the project. In addition, he has ordered the initiation of technical workshops to promote awareness of this significant project. The project aims to support the government’s efforts to develop economic infrastructure with transparency and integrity.
Customs automation is a vital component of the government’s economic reform program, as highlighted by Al-Sudani. It serves as a basis for financial and banking reforms and aligns with the government’s goal of promoting fair trade and fighting corruption.

The saga about the Iraqi dinar RV only gets better as the months roll on.
More and more pieces are put in place for the inevitable revaluation and reinstatement of the dinar. It has become not a matter of “if” these events will occur but “when”.

Abdul Mahdi calls for the implementation of Parliament’s decision to withdraw US and NATO forces from Iraq, 18 OCT
On Wednesday, former Prime Minister Adel Abdul Mahdi urged the House of Representatives to activate their decision which calls for the withdrawal of foreign forces from Iraq. This comes in light of the recent events in the Gaza Strip, Palestine.
Abdul Mahdi issued a statement today stating that two urgent demands must be met in response to the aggression against Palestine. Firstly, the House of Representatives’ decision of 1/5/2020, which entails the withdrawal of all American and NATO forces with all their names, must be immediately implemented.
Abdul Mahdi urged preparedness at all levels and fields for the upcoming battle.
The Iraqi Parliament agreed on a resolution on January 5, 2020, requiring Baghdad to take steps to withdraw foreign soldiers from the nation.
The decision was made two days after an airstrike near Baghdad airport by Washington resulted in the deaths of Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis, the commander of the Iraqi Popular Mobilization Forces, and Qassem Soleimani, the commander of the Iranian Quds Force.
