1- The extension of the visas for Lebanese citizens currently in Iraq without the need to travel, for a period of thirty days, which can be extended again, based on the provisions of the Foreigners' Residency Law No. (76 of 2017), due to the severe wartime conditions Lebanon is going through.

3- Continue issuing free entry visas for Lebanese citizens at Iraq's border crossings.
