The Kurdistan Regional Government has declared Monday December 18th 2023, as an official bank holiday throughout the region. This is in observance of the Provincial Council Elections in Iraq.

Regular official activities will recommence on Tuesday, December 19th.

On December 18th, Iraqis will elect members of the provincial councils, the highest oversight bodies of subnational government and key providers of public services.

The elections are the first at the provincial level in over a decade and come in the wake of the 2019 anti-government protests that resulted in the dissolution of the provincial councils following demands from the protesters who accused them of corruption.
