Iraqi PM opens new Manufacturing Plant in Baghdad

By John Lee.

Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia Al-Sudani inaugurated a new manufacturing plant to make car registration plates (licence plates), operated by the Ministry of Interior, in Baghdad on Saturday.

He toured the facility and reviewed the production process, which meets high standards allowing vehicle owners to drive internationally.

PM Al-Sudani praised the efforts of the Ministry of Interior, the General Traffic Directorate, and the implementing company, highlighting the project's importance in resolving the long-standing issue of registration plates.

The first production line was installed in March and is now operational. The investing company will deliver additional production lines soon to produce square plates and motorcycle plates. A team from the Traffic Directorate received training at the plant.

Each production line can manufacture approximately 2,000 plates per hour, with a daily capacity of 16,000 plates per shift, potentially increasing with extended working hours. The plant can produce three types of plates in various sizes to meet the Traffic Directorate's requirements: short plates, long plates, and motorcycle plates.
