Business software built for Iraq

Iraq is one of the Middle East's largest economies and one of its fastest-rebuilding markets, with a young population, a rapidly digitising banking sector and a business base spread across Baghdad, Basra and the Kurdistan Region. Companies operating federally, in the Kurdistan Region, or across both adopt Zoho and Odoo to run finance, sales and operations on a single system.

CurrencyIraqi dinar (IQD), with USD widely used in trade
TaxNo general VAT; sales tax on selected goods and services + 15% corporate income tax (35% oil and gas)
FilingGeneral Commission for Taxes; the Kurdistan Region files separately
PayrollState Social Security Department - 12% employer, 5% employee

Why businesses in Iraq choose Shyphan

Trading, contracting, logistics, oil services, telecoms and professional services firms are the backbone of the Iraqi private sector, and most of them run on spreadsheets and disconnected tools for far longer than they should. We put a single system in place - quotes, orders, invoices, stock and collections - without asking the team to change how they actually work.

Iraq applies no general VAT. A sales tax applies to selected goods and services, and corporate income tax is 15% for most sectors and 35% for oil and gas, filed with the General Commission for Taxes. Companies registered in the Kurdistan Region file with the Region's own tax administration, so groups operating on both sides of that line need their entities kept apart in the books from day one. We configure your finance system for that split, for dinar and dollar working, and for Arabic, Kurdish and English documents.

Where business is registered

Federal Iraq through the Ministry of Trade in Baghdad, the Kurdistan Region through its own registrar in Erbil, plus the Khor Al-Zubair and Al-Qaim free zones and the Basra port corridor at Umm Qasr. Groups often hold entities on both sides.

Across Iraq

Mobile App Development across Iraq

We deliver mobile app development for clients in Baghdad, Basra, Erbil, Mosul, Najaf, Karbala, Sulaymaniyah and Kirkuk. Projects run remotely on Iraq hours with on-site workshops in Baghdad, Basra and Erbil where discovery or training justifies it.

Staff turnover and visa cycles are higher than most markets, so processes that live in one person's head or one person's WhatsApp are a genuine business risk. Whatever the sector, the failure mode is the same: software built without the people who use it, and abandoned within a year. Discovery is where we prevent that.

Worth reading alongside this: Mobile App Development in Baghdad, Mobile App Development in Erbil and Mobile App Development in Basra.

Mobile App Development in Iraq: the short answer

What it is
Mobile App Development for businesses in Iraq - native and cross-platform apps for iOS and Android built around a real business case.
Best suited to
Mobile App Development suits companies whose customers or field staff need to work from a phone, not a desk.
Typical timeline
A first usable version of a focused product typically ships in six to ten weeks, with a clickable prototype inside the first two so you are reacting to something real rather than to a document.
What it costs
We quote a fixed price in IQD after a discovery session, broken into phases so you are never committing to the whole build on day one.
Local specifics
No general VAT in Iraq - sales tax applies to selected goods and services, corporate income tax is 15%, filed with the General Commission for Taxes, with the Kurdistan Region filing separately. Dinar and dollar working; Arabic, Kurdish and English documents.

Typical cost per user / month From about $37 for the full suiteOften $150-300+ once add-ons are included
Accounting & Iraqi sales tax Built in with Zoho Books (GCT sales tax)Needs QuickBooks, NetSuite or third-party add-ons
Custom apps & automation Low-code Zoho Creator + Deluge includedExtra platform licensing and developer cost

FAQ

Mobile App Development Iraq: questions answered

Native or cross-platform?
Cross-platform for most business apps, because one codebase halves the cost and the difference is invisible to users. Native where you need heavy device integration, demanding graphics or platform-specific hardware. We will tell you which yours is rather than defaulting.
Do you handle App Store and Play Store submission?
Yes, including developer account setup, store listings, screenshots, privacy declarations and the review cycles, which regularly catch teams out on the first submission.
Can the app work without internet?
Yes, and for Iraqi field, logistics and warehouse work it usually must. We design offline-first with local storage and conflict-safe sync when coverage returns.
How much does mobile app development cost in Iraq?
We quote a fixed price in IQD after a discovery session, broken into phases so you are never committing to the whole build on day one. Anyone quoting a number before understanding the process is guessing, and you will pay for that guess later.
What happens after launch?
You own everything: code, repositories, cloud accounts and documentation. Most clients take a monthly support retainer for fixes, security patching and enhancements, but you are free to take it in-house or elsewhere.
Do you work outside Baghdad?
Yes. We deliver across Baghdad, Basra, Erbil, Mosul, Najaf, Karbala, Sulaymaniyah and Kirkuk, remotely as standard with on-site attendance in Baghdad, Basra and Erbil where the project justifies it.
Do you sign an NDA before we share our data?
Yes, as a matter of course. We also work in a sandbox with masked or sample data wherever the real thing is not needed.
What does the first conversation cover?
A short discovery call: what you run today, what is not working, who it affects and what a good outcome looks like. You leave it knowing whether we are a fit and roughly what the work involves, with no obligation either way.
How does this hold up with unreliable power and connectivity?
Everything runs in the browser and on mobile, so a laptop dropping off does not lose work already saved, and staff can carry on from a phone on mobile data. For field, delivery and warehouse teams we lean on mobile apps that tolerate patchy coverage and sync when the connection returns, rather than assuming an always-on office network.
Are prices quoted in dinar or dollars?
We quote a fixed price after a free discovery call and can present it in IQD or USD, whichever matches how you budget. Zoho's own licence fees are billed by Zoho directly, usually in USD, and we keep that separate on the quote so you can see what is our fee and what is the software.
Can you help a company that is still running on spreadsheets?
That is the usual starting point in Iraq and it is not a problem. We migrate customers, suppliers, open balances and stock from Excel, clean the duplicates on the way in, and run the old sheet alongside the new system for the first cycle so nobody has to trust it blindly.
How long does a build take?
A first usable version of a focused product typically ships in six to ten weeks, with a clickable prototype inside the first two so you are reacting to something real rather than to a document. Larger platforms run in phases of four to six weeks, and we release at the end of each phase rather than holding everything back for a single launch. Scope, integrations and how fast decisions come back from your side set the real number.

Who this is for

Is Mobile App Development the right fit for you?

Mobile App Development suits companies whose customers or field staff need to work from a phone, not a desk. If that is you, a prototype in the first two weeks will tell you more than another month of specification will.

It is a poor fit if an off-the-shelf product already covers ninety per cent of what you need, or if the requirements are still changing weekly. We will say so rather than bill for the discovery.
