Abstract: Aim: This study aimed to examine the legal frameworks governing contract termination in Iraq, highlighting judicial oversight, parties’ rights, and implications for legal and economic stability Methods: The study adopts a doctrinal legal analysis supported by case reviews and statutory interpretation of Iraqi contract law. Results: The findings reveal that Iraqi courts play a crucial role in balancing contractual freedom with protection of vulnerable parties, but gaps remain in the enforcement of termination clauses in commercial contracts. Conclusion: The study concludes that while Iraq’s legal system provides mechanisms for fair contract termination, reforms are needed to reduce ambiguity in non-essential contracts and enhance judicial efficiency.
