Iraq presents a complex environment shaped by ongoing security concerns, political fragmentation, and regional instability. These factors often play a critical role in immigration, asylum, and human rights cases where an individual’s risk on return must be carefully assessed.
Our Iraq country expert reports provide independent, evidence-based analysis of country conditions to assist solicitors, barristers, tribunals, and courts in understanding the context relevant to each case.
We work with legal professionals, organisations, courts, and private individuals requiring reliable expert evidence. Simply send us your letter of instructions, and we will prepare a tailored report based on the specific circumstances of your case.
Our Iraq country expert reports may address a wide range of issues, including:

Analysis of Sunni–Shia relations, sectarian tensions, and risks faced by individuals based on religious identity or perceived affiliation.
Evaluation of political parties, state authority, governance issues, and risks associated with political opinion or activity.
Assessment of risks faced by ethnic minorities, including Kurds, Turkmen, Yazidis, and other vulnerable groups.
Analysis of detention practices, access to justice, treatment of civilians, and broader human rights concerns.
Evaluation of internal displacement issues, IDP conditions, and whether safe and reasonable relocation is feasible within Iraq.
Assessment of how legal and security conditions differ between the Kurdistan Region and other parts of Iraq, and how this affects risk analysis.
Iraq continues to experience varying levels of insecurity, political tension, and social fragmentation across different regions. Conditions can differ significantly between federal Iraq and the Kurdistan Region, making location-specific analysis highly important in legal proceedings.
In asylum and immigration cases, risk often depends on factors such as sectarian identity, political affiliation, tribal connections, and regional control of territory.
An expert report provides independent analysis of these factors and explains how they may impact an individual’s safety, protection options, or ability to return.
