Hintergrund
Iraq was long part of the Ottoman empire, then during World War I came under British control. It gained nominal independence in 1932 as the Kingdom of Iraq, and became a republic after a coup in 1958.
As of 2018 the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), an agency of the United Nations, listed Law No. 3 of 1971 on Copyright as the main copyright law enacted by the legislature of Iraq.[1] WIPO holds the text of this law in their WIPO Lex database.
This law was amended on 1 May 2004 by Order No. 83, Amendment to the Copyright Law.
Since 2013, Kurdistan Region of Iraq had its own copyright law.[5] Refer to COM:IRAQI KURDISTAN for relevant information.
