Iraq's legal basis for product standards, conformity assessment, and quality control is Law No. 54 of 1979, which established the Central Organization for Standardization and Quality Control (COSQC) as an independent government agency. COSQC develops Iraqi standards, operates the Iraqi Quality Mark certification scheme, and — for regulated categories such as electrical products and tobacco — requires import conformity certification before customs clearance. This is the standing legal foundation behind Mutabiq's Iraq technical-regulation alerts, including the recent extension of mandatory Quality Mark coverage to all electrical products.
