Who we supply
- Cosmetic companies and factories, contract manufacturers among them.
- Laboratories belonging to universities, public research centres and companies, from research and development to quality control.
- Pharmaceutical companies and scientific offices, for laboratory work only. No research-grade material is ever meant for a patient, and the page for pharmaceutical companies marks that boundary.
- Distributors and trading companies whose own customers are the businesses above, and whose registered activity takes in the goods.
Who is refused
- Any private person, whatever the product or the reason offered.
- Clinics, practitioners, beauty centres and gyms, and any other buyer intending use in people or animals.
- Resellers to the public, whether through social media or by other means.
- Homes. Every order goes to laboratories, factories, offices or warehouses.
Documents for a first order
- Company registration certificate: in date, and showing an activity that matches the order.
- The licence for that activity, where the activity requires one.
- Universities and public research centres: a letter on letterhead, which replaces items 1 and 2.
- A named contact: someone who holds a position in the organisation and writes from its own email domain.
- A business delivery address in federal Iraq or the Kurdistan Region.
- For research-grade products, a signed end-use declaration, stating that the material will be used for laboratory research and not in people or animals. The full text is published as our end-use declaration.
Our reply comes within one working day. Once checked, the documents are kept on file and requested again only on expiry or a change in your details.
When we decline
An enquiry is closed when the registered activity falls outside the goods, when the buyer declines to name the end use, or when the conversation turns to people or animals. On that subject we give no advice at all. Every enquiry meets the same rule, regardless of who sends it.
Why we check
We have found no statement by an Iraqi authority on peptides as such. The nearest public warning was about unlicensed products in general. On 6 June 2026 the Kurdistan Region's Ministry of Health said laboratory tests had found sibutramine, a banned substance, in a slimming coffee, and urged people to stop using products promoted on social media without licences and Ministry of Health approval (reported by Shafaqna Iraq). That warning concerned a slimming product, not peptides. In the same year, regulators nearby acted on peptides directly: Saudi Arabia's Food and Drug Authority referred sellers of unregistered peptide products to the public prosecutor, and Jordan's Food and Drug Administration and Qatar's Ministry of Public Health warned against unlicensed peptides.
Our research-grade products are laboratory materials, not registered medicines. A supplier that answers every message is, in practice, selling to the public, and a label cannot change that. Our checks keep the products inside laboratories, factories and distributors' stores. They also give a buyer's quality department a supplier whose customer records and paperwork can be shown to an auditor.
Research use only peptides: the label
The words "research use only" restrict a material to the laboratory. It has not been made or checked to the standard a medicine must meet, and it is not sold as one. What the label does and does not permit is set out in research use only, explained. The rules that apply in Iraq, as far as they are known, are recorded in are peptides legal in Iraq?
Questions from buyers
- May a private person buy for research?
No. A home laboratory, a personal project or a purchase made for someone else are all refused.
- Are peptides legal in Iraq?
The answer turns on the product and the buyer. Medicines are registered with the federal Ministry of Health, and the Kurdistan Region has its own Ministry of Health. In federal Iraq, imported cosmetics and chemicals need a Certificate of Conformity for each consignment. The Kurdistan Region runs a separate scheme. We found no Iraqi rule written for research-use-only materials, so our legal guide separates what is settled from what is not, and the open points are for an Iraqi lawyer to confirm.
- Can a university research team order?
Yes, provided the university is the buyer: its letterhead, a staff member named as contact, and the laboratory as the delivery address. Orders placed by students in their own name are refused.
Opening an account
Regular buyers can open an account, which means one check for all later orders. A buyer with a single order can request a quote, entering the company registration number.
