Most hotels in the major cities offer free Wi-Fi, and free Wi-Fi hotspots are strewn all over the entire capital of Baghdad. Wiman offers almost forty thousand free Wi-Fi hotspots around Baghdad and almost eight thousand around Basra. However, the internet speed is not that great. Still, it works well enough for social media and emails so you can keep in touch with loved ones at home. For $20, you can buy a local sim card that gives you unlimited internet for a month. There are also no internet restrictions in Iraq, so you don’t have to worry about your social media account getting blocked. However, bring an adaptor and a power bank during your stay. Plug sockets vary in different hotels and hotel rooms, with some having the European standard two-pronged type while others have three, so pack an adaptor with you just to be sure. Moreover, power outages are common, hence it’s a good idea to also bring a power bank.
