Where this comes from
Derived from Coinmama's restricted countries and states page, https://www.coinmama.com/support/restricted-countries-and-states, read on 2026-09-05. It is an exclusion list: every country listed here is a sourced no, and a country absent from it is unknown rather than served. The page also names New York and Louisiana, which the state pages cover, and territories without a guide on this site (Abkhazia, Crimea, Northern Cyprus, South Ossetia, the Luhansk and Donetsk regions, the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic and North Korea), which are not listed. Nine of the countries on the page (Belarus, the Central African Republic, Lebanon, Nicaragua, Palestine, Somalia, South Sudan, Venezuela and Zimbabwe) were ranked in this site's guides until 2026-09-07, when those rows were removed on the strength of this page: the operator's own list decides availability.
What is actually allowed in Iraq
Cryptocurrency is banned in Iraq. The Central Bank of Iraq first prohibited dealing in it in 2017 and reinforced the ban with Circular No. 125/5/9 of November 2021, which forbids banks, payment providers, and other financial intermediaries from any virtual asset transactions, with violations punishable under the Anti-Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing Law. In 2025 authorities in the Kurdistan Region separately ordered crypto and forex trading operations closed.
