Qoroqchi (Persian: قرقچي), also Romanized as Qoroqchī,[3] is a village in, and the capital of, Ajorluy-ye Gharbi Rural District[4] of Nokhtalu District of Baruq County, West Azerbaijan province, Iran.

At the 2006 National Census, its population was 45 in 10 households, when it was in the former Baruq District of Miandoab County.[5] The following census in 2011 counted 24 people in 7 households.[6] The latest census in 2016 showed a population of 133 people in 45 households.[2]

In July 2021, the district was separated from the county in the establishment of Baruq County, which was divided into two districts of two rural districts each, with Baruq as its capital and only city.[7]
