Embassy of Iraq in Hanoi: Address, Hours & Services 2026

The Embassy of Iraq in Hanoi has long been listed at 66 Tran Hung Dao Street, Hanoi (formerly Hoan Kiem District), with the old number +84 24 3733 4014. However, several recent visitors report that no mission operates at that address any more and that the phone numbers do not work, and one report says the embassy has moved to 2 Le Hong Phong Street (former Ba Dinh area) – we could not confirm any of this from an official source. Do not go in person until you have reached the embassy or the Iraqi Ministry of Foreign Affairs. It is Iraq’s only mission in Vietnam and handles protection and documents for Iraqi citizens. Info Travel supports Iraqi nationals with visas, residence cards, legalisation and certified translations – WhatsApp +84327828822.

Consular services for Iraqi citizens

We have not been able to verify the official service list of the Iraqi mission, so the points below only describe the basic consular matters Iraqi nationals usually ask about:

Consular protection in emergencies (accidents, lost documents, detention).
Replacement travel documents after a passport is lost.
Passports, civil registration and document certification – the exact scope must be confirmed directly.
Document confirmations for Iraqis working or studying in Vietnam – check requirements first.

Once you know what you need, phone the embassy for the document checklist before you visit.

What to know before you visit

Do not go to 66 Tran Hung Dao without confirmation: several people report travelling there – one even flew in from another country – only to find the embassy gone, although the Google Maps pin and some websites still show it.
The old phone numbers do not work: the listed numbers are reported as unreachable. Ask the Iraqi Ministry of Foreign Affairs (mofa.gov.iq) or an Iraqi mission in a neighbouring country for current contact details.
The new address is unconfirmed: one report says the embassy moved to 2 Le Hong Phong Street, Hanoi, but we could not verify it – only go once the embassy itself confirms.
Visas for Iraq: if you are a foreigner needing a visa for Iraq, check Iraq’s e-visa options or an Iraqi mission in another country rather than relying on an office in Hanoi.
Bring your Iraqi passport or a copy, the police loss report if any, photos and original supporting documents.
Holidays: the embassy usually closes on Vietnamese holidays and Iraqi holidays (Eid al-Fitr, Eid al-Adha, Iraqi National Day).
Expect a security check at the gate.

What foreigners typically need help with at the embassy

Iraqi residents usually pass through the embassy at some point while sorting out residence paperwork in Vietnam. Typical situations and the sensible order of steps:

Passport lost, damaged or stolen: police loss report first, replacement travel document from the embassy second, and finally a new visa or exit visa from Vietnamese immigration, because the old visa is linked to the old passport number. Details: exit procedures.
Renewing a passport close to expiry: many Vietnamese offices refuse applications on a passport with little validity left. Once you have the new passport, move your temporary residence card or visa onto it; if your stay has run out, apply for a visa extension.
Civil status and employment documents: marrying a Vietnamese citizen, registering a child’s birth, applying for a work permit – all require foreign documents that are legalised and translated.
Notarising signatures and copies: powers of attorney for property, bank or inheritance matters at home.

For short trips or re-entry, check the conditions of the Vietnam e-visa.

Getting an Iraqi passport in Vietnam

A word first: Vietnamese visas and residence cards are tied to your passport number, so any passport change triggers a Vietnamese procedure as well.

We could not verify whether the Embassy of Iraq in Hanoi issues or renews passports in Vietnam. If your passport is nearing expiry, ask the embassy early whether it can be done in Hanoi or must be filed in Iraq. When a passport is lost, the usual solution is an emergency travel document issued by the embassy for the journey home.

Info Travel does not replace the Iraqi mission, but we can handle the rest in Vietnam: translation and notarisation, a new visa or exit visa when the old passport is lost, moving your visa or temporary residence card to a new passport, and exit procedures. Steps that require you to appear at the mission remain yours to do in person.

Consular legalisation, MOFA / Department of Foreign Affairs certification and notarised translation

a) Iraqi documents for use in Vietnam: the usual route is certification by the competent Iraqi authority, then legalisation at the Vietnamese embassy or consulate responsible for Iraq. We could not confirm whether the Iraqi embassy in Vietnam certifies documents; if it does, a document certified there is then legalised at the Consular Department (Hanoi) or the HCMC Department of Foreign Affairs. Finally a notarised Vietnamese translation is made, unless an international treaty provides an exemption.

b) Vietnamese documents for use in Iraq: obtain consular certification at the Consular Department or the HCMC Department of Foreign Affairs, then legalisation at the Iraqi mission in Vietnam if it offers this service (ask in advance about translation requirements and fees).

Just send photos of your documents on WhatsApp +84327828822: Info Travel tells you which route applies, arranges the notarised translation, the MOFA or Department of Foreign Affairs stamp, and submission and collection at the Iraqi mission.
