So it seems to be possible but a headache. If you're not American, Israeli or British then getting a carnet and entering from Iran might be easier. I might go this route later this year.

Interesting to hear that. I considered doing the internal flight from Erbil to Baghdad and back to my car, but didn't want mismatched car papers / visa etc so just forked out for a cdp and went through Iran.
