Application Process

As per the regulations outlined by the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Tourist visa is designed for foreign nationals intending to travel to Iran either independently or as part of a group for the purpose of visiting the country or meeting friends and relatives.

This visa allows a maximum stay of 90 days, with the option to extend while in Iran, and remains valid for a period of 3 months from the date of issue. Depending on your nationality and the consulate you choose, you can submit your documents and obtain a visa after a few days without requiring a reference from Iran or opt for the new e-visa system. However, applying outside your home country can be time-consuming and challenging.

In most cases, consulates usually mandate an authorization letter or Visa Grant Notice from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Tehran, which is a pivotal requirement during the visa application process. Once you secure this authorization code, the subsequent steps are generally uncomplicated, and you can expect to receive your visa within a span of 1 or 2 days.

You may also apply for an Entry (Business) visa, which needs an invitation letter from your Iranian host, but keep in mind that most business trips are fine with a tourist visa as well.

Step 1 : Apply

Fill out the application form with accurate details, ensuring they match your passport information. This formal application will be sent to the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, authorizing the consulate for visa issuance.

Step 2 : Payment

After submitting the application, you’ll receive a service bill and payment instructions. This charge is separate from the visa fee payable to the consulate during the stamping process (Step 4).

Step 3 : Receive

Once processed, you will receive an authorization letter, transmitted to the specified consulate. The letter includes the visa code and a visa grant notice valid for a month. You can request forwarding to another consulate for an additional charge.

Step 4 : Collect

With the reference code, visit the consulate with your passport (valid for the next 6 months), completed visa application form, 2 passport size photos, visa fee, and the authorization reference code. Confirm document requirements with the consulate, as they may vary. Mailing options may be available; contact the consulate for details.

I tried to get an Iranian visa in December but at that time could only find travel agents that charged more than the price of a flight to arrange the visa. When I tried again in May I found iranianvisa.com. They did everything they said they would very quickly and efficiently and I got my visa with no problems and little expense. I will definitely use them again. The service is brilliant and I cannot think of any way it can be improved. Please keep it going and don't put up the price. Khaley mamnoon!

I found the process very easy and e-mail communication very quick. However it took much more than 10 working days and was getting worried about not receiving any feedback after that long time. But I understand that you have nothing to do with the delay, it is because of the MFA process, but i must admit i was beginning to think i will not have the visa and never hear from you again! Thank you again for everything, i will tell other travelers about your website if they want to go to Iran!

Excellent service which made the process very easy in the end. A real boon considering the need to get a travel authorization code befor a visa application can be processed. I wish I had known about the service earlier.
