Iraq–Sweden relations are foreign relations between Iraq and Sweden. Iraq has an embassy in Stockholm, and a new Swedish embassy opened in Baghdad in 2009. Iraq has severed all ties with Sweden since July 2023, after Swedish authorities allowed a man to burn the Iraqi flag and the Quran in front of the Iraqi Embassy, Stockholm.

Sweden is one of the largest donors to the protection force for UN personnel in Iraq, that was established in 2004. There are around 200,000 Iraqis living in Sweden, making them the second largest minority group living there.
