Despite the importance of tourism investment in maximizing the imports of countries that have the ingredients for its existence, including Iraq (which is characterized by the diversity of its sources of tourism and the role of this sector has been strengthened after the inclusion of the marshlands in southern Iraq within the World Heritage areas in 2016), it is an inexhaustible resource if it is properly exploited. Through the great economic resources and returns it achieves, the Iraqi legislator and other legislation, including the legislation under comparison, neglected to organize its provisions in special legislation, which means referring to the general provisions regulating investment and legislation related to tourism work, researching the provisions of tourism investment in terms of emerging rights About him and the obligations incumbent on the tourist investor is what we will discuss in this research, in which we reached a number of results, perhaps the most prominent of which is the legislative shortcoming in the provisions of tourism investment despite the practical need for its existence and what this shortcoming left obstacles and difficulties that led to the delay in tourism investments, which prompted us to inviting the Iraqi legislator to issue a legal regulation for tourism investment.
