Getting Iran Visa can be slightly different from visa process of other countries in that: first in the process of online visa application is obtaining ‘’Visa Authorization Code’’, which simply means the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs has processed and approved your visa application.

Obtaining the Iran Visa has 2 steps:

  1. Apply online via the MFA E-Visa website of Iran Ministry of Foreign Affairs .
    • One can apply for Iran independently, however, when planning an Iran private tour, it is highly recommended to leave the visa matters in the hands of the Iranian tour operator.
  1. Upon receiving the ‘’Visa Authorization Code’’, appear at the Iranian Embassy in your country, to receive your Iran Visa.
    • Majority of nationalities, have the option of obtaining their Visa on arrival in Iran. However, to avoid possible setbacks or wasting of time at the airport, we recommend having your visa before your trip; or at least, having applied online and received your Visa Grant Notice before arrival in Iran.

#4 Is Iran Safe for Tourists?

Is Iran Safe for Tourists? As a tourist, you have the right to be concerned for your safety in an unknown land. Nevertheless, to put your mind at ease with official statistics, according to the 2019 Travel Risk Map , Iran is considered as safe as majority of European countries to travel to. And no better confirmation than word of mouth by tourists sharing their experience:

Although initially a little anxious about safety, we quickly relaxed into total comfort as we walked the streets of Shiraz, Isfahan, Kashan, Tehran and, later, Yazd. Frankly, we felt as safe in Iran as in any other country we have visited.


Kit and Luke Argilla

… filled with sadness to be leaving this astonishing country, We were buzzing but equally exhausted. But behind it all there was a knowing beam on our faces – we had now experienced this “misunderstood” country – should you go to Iran? YES! You must go!
