Control of Iraq has been handed to a sovereign government after a surprise announcement that the transfer was being brought forward to today.
The transer of power from the US-led coalition was supposed to happen on June 30.
But Iraq's foreign minister, Hoshyar Zebari, said the deteriorating security situation in the country was one of the reasons why the date had been brought forward.
It was feared guerillas would stage a major attack to derail the process.
The offiicial handover took place at a ceremony in Baghdad.
"This is a historical day," said Prime Minister Iyad Allawi at the ceremony.
"We feel we are capable of controlling the security situation."
US governor Paul Bremer said: "You have said, and we agreed, that you are ready for sovereignty," Bremer said in the ceremony. I will leave Iraq confident in its future."
