Steel Rebar Export to Iraq

Rebar Iraq: Market Context and Procurement Drivers

Iraq’s construction sector has sustained significant demand for reinforcing steel across infrastructure rehabilitation, housing programmes, and large-scale public works. International contractors and procurement offices frequently seek verified, standards-compliant rebar with reliable documentation when sourcing from outside the region. German-origin B500B to EN 10080 answers that need precisely — offering traceable metallurgical documentation and consistent mechanical properties.

The Iraqi Standards Organisation (COSQC) references BS 4449 as the primary reinforcing-steel benchmark. B500B produced to EN 10080 and DIN 488 is technically comparable to BS 4449 grade B500B in terms of minimum yield strength (500 MPa), ductility class (high ductility, k ≥ 1.08, Agt ≥ 5.0%) and ribbing geometry requirements. We supply to EN 10080 specifications and provide all relevant documentation; buyers are responsible for confirming local acceptance and project-specific approval with their engineer of record. We do not claim formal COSQC or Iraqi national approval.

Product Range Available for Export to Iraq

We supply the following reinforcing steel products for shipment to Iraq:

• B500B deformed bars — diameters 8–40 mm, standard lengths 6 m and 12 m (other lengths available on request), hot-rolled, high ductility to EN 10080.
• B500A / B500B coils — diameters 6–16 mm, for on-site or plant straightening and cutting.
• Reinforcing steel mesh — standard panels and bespoke sizes to DIN 488-4.
• Cut-and-bend rebar — processed to project shape codes, reducing site waste and labour.
• Mechanical couplers — parallel-thread and taper-thread types, diameters 12–40 mm.

Weight and Section Reference — B500B Bars

Formula: kg/m = d²(mm) × 0.00617. Cross-section = π/4 · d².

Export Documentation Package

Every shipment of rebar Iraq buyers receive is accompanied by a complete export documentation package. The standard set includes:

• Mill Test Certificate (EN 10204 3.1) — heat-specific chemical composition and mechanical test results, traceable to the production cast.
• Certificate of Origin — issued by a recognised German chamber of commerce, confirming German or EU origin.
• Packing List — itemised bundle weights, dimensions, and bar count per bundle.
• Commercial Invoice — in the buyer’s required currency and format.
• Bill of Lading / Sea Waybill — issued by the nominated shipping line.

Additional documents such as fumigation certificates, phytosanitary equivalents for packing materials, or specific Iraqi customs declarations can be coordinated on request. Learn about our certification approach →
