Supplying your own needle for Blood test for a Kurdistan residency permit

Supplying your own needle for Blood test for a Kurdistan residency permit - Top view of glass covered tubes arranged on table near plastic stand with tubes placed on row in modern laboratory

For the blood test (if still required) (see Current blood test requirement for Kurdistan residency permit) can one supply one’s own needle?

Details of what is involved, in medical terms, would also be appreciated.

I watched a BBC documentary today about some of the battlegrounds used by Alexander the Great. The narrator had to pass through Kurdistan border control and the procedure was included in the documentary from start to finish. There was no evidence of a blood test at all. Here's a screen cap...

As seen, the control point uses a manual ledger and contains no equipment of any sort. From this we can safely infer that of course you can use your own needle if you are asked for a blood sample. But I do not see evidence of that situation happening in real life.
