keepmwlknfny Posted January 1, 2011 Report Share Posted January 1, 2011 Warka accounts have all funds 100% protected by the CBI.......so its basically like a FDIC insurance......the greatest benefit to having one would be that if we are required to exchange for new bills, you can just sit back and not have to worry about a thing since its electronic funds......no extra fees out of your pocket for exchanging and no time limits either.......and its more then just a website FYI......they have MANY banks all over Iraq..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regarding your passport it first has to go to the US State Department to be documented. If you think you have to send your money by Western Union you probably should do more research on investing in Iraq and the modern and up to date facilities their banks have now days.
