Big Increase in Visas for Iraqi Kurds

The Iranian Consulate General in Sulaymaniyah announced that visas issued to Iraqi Kurds saw a 4-fold increase during the Iranian month of Mordad (July 23-Aug 22) compared to the same period last year. Referring to the increase in the number of requests for travelling to Iran over the past few months, the mission said that 2,800 visas were issued to during the said period, IRNA reported on Saturday. Steep decline in the value of the rial has given Iraqi Kurds a purchasing power edge, enticing them to travel to Iran to buy goods.
