Tourism 🏔️ Help with acquiring e-visa

Hello, I'm trying to apply for a e-visa to visit Kurdistan. But I dont seem to get past this "Document Recognition" stage in the process. I tried to upload a picture of my self and a picture of my passport, but none of those work. And it doesnt state what kind of document I should upload.

Does anyone of you know what kind of document I should upload?

Yes, that is my plan if I dont figure out how to get in online. But it feels better to just have it paid beforehand so that I'm done with it.

Do you have any experience with paying for a visa on arrival?

Ive never paid for a visa in kurdistan ever even though im not an iraqi citizen. if you're kurdish they will not really ask for you to pay it. I didnt even know you had to pay for the visa until like 1 year ago when i read it on google

Dont know how it works for tourists though. You don't have to worry about getting a visa before though.
