Iran Visa

Tourists who wish to travel to Iran can get their visa quite easily and we as professional tour operators guarantee the visa approval.

Firstly, a visa application form will be sent to you for completion.  You will need to fill out the form and send it back to us.  When we receive the completed form, we enter your information onto the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) website and the application will be acknowledged with a reference number. If there is no problem with the application, you will receive a visa code to enable you to pick up your visa from the Iranian embassy in your country. It takes about three to ten working days after the form has been uploaded to the MFA to receive a visa code from your travel agency in Iran.

The next step is for you to apply for your Iranian visa at the embassy, using the visa code.  This will usually take one to two weeks.  An Iranian travel visa will be issued for one month (30 days); however, it can be extended for an additional 15 days by the passport police officers in Iran.

Citizens of some countries due to mutual agreement, are exempt from applying for a visa for entering Iran, including Turkey, Malaysia, China, Egypt, Bolivia, Azerbaijan, Syria, Lebanon, Georgia, Armenia, Venezuela.
