The General Traffic Directorate denied the existence of any official approvals permitting the tinting of vehicle windows, affirming that current laws strictly prohibit this practice regardless of the tint percentage. The directorate noted that the penalty for this violation includes
the immediate removal of the tint and a financial fine of up to 200,000 Iraqi dinars. It also clarified that a proposal is currently under review to allow certain tinting percentages, though it has not yet been approved. Regarding the
Kurdistan Region, the directorate stated that the region operates under its own specific traffic legislation, which allows window tinting according to defined fees and percentages.
