The 1961–62 Iraq Central FA First Division Cup was the 14th season of the Iraq Central FA League (the top division of football in central Iraq, including the capital city of Baghdad, from 1948 to 1974). It kicked off on 24 October 1961 and ended on 27 April 1962. It was originally supposed to be played between eight teams, but Montakhab Al-Shorta withdrew and Amanat Al-Asima were disqualified, leaving six teams. Unlike the previous five seasons, it featured a round-robin format, meaning each team played each other team in the league once.
