The Iraqi Clubs in the AFC Champions League and AFC Cup. From its introduction in 2003 until the forming of the AFC Professional League in 2009, Iraqi clubs were allowed to enter at the AFC Champions League. Despite reaching respectable results, none of the Iraqi teams managed to get further than the Group Stage.

Since Iraq didn't met any of the AFC standards for the ACL, its clubs participated at the AFC Cup from 2009 onwards (however, the AFC gave Iraq one qualifying spot for the ACL for the 2014 edition only).
