Official Announcements

Azmar Bank confirms that salaries for all government employees will be credited on March 28, 2026. Please ensure your account details are up to date to avoid any delays. The salary disbursement will follow the standard order by ministry, starting from 8:00 AM.

If you have recently changed your employment or banking details, please visit your home branch before March 20 to update your records. For any questions, visit any branch or call our support line.

Azmar Bank has expanded its ATM network to improve accessibility and reduce waiting times. New machines are now available at:

• Sulaymaniyah – main branch exterior (24/7)
• Erbil – near the Ministry of Education (compound access)
• Duhok – Azmar Bank annex, Azadi street

All new ATMs are fully stocked and ready for salary withdrawals. A full location map is available on our Branches & ATMs page.

To better serve public employees, our Sulaymaniyah main branch now offers extended working hours on Saturdays. The branch is open from 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM Sunday–Thursday, and until 4:00 PM on Saturdays. All services, including salary account opening and loan applications, are available.

Due to national holidays, branch operations will be adjusted during the last week of December. All branches will resume regular working hours from December 28, 2025. Plan your banking accordingly. ATMs remain operational 24/7 for cash withdrawals and balance checks.

Branches in Erbil and Sulaymaniyah will be closed on December 25. We apologise for any inconvenience.

Public employees can now request official salary certificates directly at any Azmar Bank branch. These printed certificates are stamped and signed, and accepted by all ministries and financial institutions. Simply visit your home branch with your ID and account number; the certificate will be issued on the spot.

As part of our commitment to accessibility, Azmar Bank inaugurated a new full-service branch in Kirkuk, located on Qalat Street. The branch offers salary accounts, loans, and corporate services. Working hours: Sunday–Thursday 8:30–15:30. All services require an in-person visit.
