Iran Travel Questions

Visa on arrival

Question:

I am an Irish passport holder. I applied for an Iran visa through evisa.mfa.ir 2 weeks ago but I have been rejected. Can I apply for a visa on arrival once landing in Tehran?

 

Answer:

First of all, an Iran visa on arrival is only for tourist purposes so the following passport holders are not granted to enter Iran on this kind of visa:

  • Journalists
  • Diplomatic/ Service passports holders
  • The applicants whose previous attempts to get Iran visa has been rejected

Thus you can not apply for a VOA.

 

However, the applicants are required to have:

1. Passport with at least 6 months validity

2. One passport-size photo

3. Airport visa fees: depending on the nationality

4. Submit proof of one of these:

  • Contact details of the hotel in which they will stay
  • Contact details for the travel agent who applies for your services
  • Invitation letter

There are entry bans for some nationalities thus it is advisable to apply for a visa beforehand through an official travel agency. Once approved an authorization code will be sent to you. Then you can collect your visa at the airport with that code.
