Verification log

Verified - full register · Iraqi Insurance Diwan (Insurance Bureau, Ministry of Finance), 'Insurance companies' (شركات التأمين), retrieved 23 Sep 2026: 40 insurance companies on the Arabic page (39 on the English page, which omits Takaful Al-Iraq). The Diwan lists insurance brokerage companies, agents and experts on separate pages. Supplemented for licence class by the Insurance Bureau's notice of 23 Jul 2025, 'The position of insurance companies'.

Reconciled against the Iraqi Insurance Diwan's own 'Insurance companies' list (40 companies on its Arabic page, retrieved 23 Sep 2026): all 9 rows matched, 31 companies added, none removed. The list carries no licence numbers, dates or classes, so 22 of the additions are classCode U; the classes that are set come from the Diwan's own company profiles and from its licence-renewal notice of 23 Jul 2025, which also corrects Al-Khair from takaful to general.
