Urgency: Context · Evidence: Attributed claim
Central Bank of Iraq media director Haider Ghazi told Shafaq News that no decision had been issued increasing travellers' dollar allowance from $2,000 to $3,500. He described a document circulating online as forged. This is the bank's denial; the circulated document was not independently authenticated.
What the sources establish
Haider Ghazi is the claimant. Shafaq reports its direct interview, not independent document forensics. An original CBI notice and applicable traveller eligibility rules were not separately inspected. No material contrary bank statement was established. No alleged forger is identified. The explicit 11:17:26Z publication is rounded to the minute; it is not a decision time.
Evidence last checked: 1 Nov 2026 11:33 UTC.
