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.
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.
Cities we serve in Iraq
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.

What Zoho Books actually gives a Iraqi business
Zoho Books is cloud accounting built for Iraqi tax reporting and dinar/dollar multi-currency trade.
For Iraqi teams that matters because 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. We configure it for federal Iraq and Kurdistan Region companies that need GCT-ready books without an on-premise ledger, with sales tax, corporate income tax, social security and Kurdistan Region realities already accounted for.
Typical integrations we build alongside it include Zoho CRM, Zoho Inventory, Stripe, Zain Cash, Qi Card, Miswag, Orisdi and Iraq bank feeds, so Zoho Books stops being an island and becomes part of how the business runs.
Our certified Zoho team
Zoho Books across the Iraq
We work with federal Iraq and Kurdistan Region companies that need GCT-ready books without an on-premise ledger in Baghdad, Basra, Erbil, Mosul, Najaf, Karbala, Sulaymaniyah and Kirkuk. Engagements run remotely on Iraq hours with on-site workshops in Baghdad, Basra and Erbil where the scale justifies it.
Whatever the sector, the pattern is the same: Iraqi sales tax on selected goods and services, corporate income tax above the 15% corporate income tax rate and the phased digital tax record-keeping programme have pushed businesses towards systems that produce compliant documents by default. Our job on a Zoho books setup services engagement is to make that specific to your business rather than generic to your industry.

Why Iraqi teams switch to Zoho
How Zoho, set up by an authorized partner, compares with a typical Salesforce or HubSpot stack. Figures are approximate and vary by plan.
| Zoho with Shyphan | Typical Salesforce / HubSpot stack | |
|---|---|---|
| Apps included | 40+ apps in Zoho One under one login | CRM only; marketing, support and finance are separate paid products |
| Typical cost per user / month | From about $37 for the full suite | Often $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 included | Extra platform licensing and developer cost |
| Setup & migration | Fixed-quote; we migrate your data for you | DIY or costly per-hour partner work |

Is Zoho Books Setup Services the right fit for you?
Zoho Books Setup Services suits finance teams that want GCT-ready books and dinar-and-dollar working without an on-premise ledger. If that is you, the licence usually pays for itself inside the first quarter. We will say so on the discovery call if it will not.
It is a poor fit if you need a heavily bespoke system with no commercial off-the-shelf equivalent, or if nobody internally can own the data. In either case we will tell you on the first call rather than after the invoice.
