Iraq Division One is the second-highest division in Iraqi football after the Iraqi Premier League. Each year, the top two teams in the league are promoted to the Iraqi Premier League.

It was originally called the Division Two but has been known as the Division One since 2003. In the 2017–18 season, Al-Karkh won the title and were promoted alongside runners-up Erbil.
