Why this verdict

Iraqi citizens are encoded from Malaysia Immigration's visa-requirement guidance (not listed as visa-required route). This destination-wave matrix record is intentionally conservative: ordinary passport, tourism / short social visit only. Work, study, residence, long-term passes, Visa With Reference, eVisa eligibility, airline handling and immigration discretion can change the practical answer. Reconfirm on the official source before booking.

Conditional rules

Work, study, residence or long-term stay Visa required

Visa-free or visa-exempt short visits do not cover work, study, residence or long-term passes.
