Important Notes

Iranian citizens can apply for a unified electronic visa (eVisa) for tourism, business, private visits, or humanitarian purposes. This eVisa allows a single entry and a stay of up to 16 days within its 60-day validity period. It is valid for entry and exit through specific air, land, and sea checkpoints. For stays longer than 16 days or for purposes not covered by the eVisa, a traditional standard visa obtained through a consulate is required. Group tourist visa-free travel is also available for organized tours.
