• You can contact a reliable Iranian travel agency through our contact form to get an Iran LOI with visa authorisation code.
• An “e-visa” system has been put in place since January 2017, that allows travelers to get their authorisation code without going through a tour operator. You still need to visit the embassy to apply and to pick up your visa though.
• In short, it is not a real e-visa. Instead, it is a way to get the authorisation code needed to apply for your Iran visa without the help of a tour operator.
• Not all times are auspicious for traveling to Iran. In the past, it has been difficult to get a visa during election times.
• Travelers need a visa to visit Iran for Business or Tourism.
