Iran Visa Grant Notice

Upon approval of your Iranian visa application, the Iranian Ministry of Affairs issues a Visa Grant Notice. This document serves as confirmation that a visa will be issued to you upon presentation of your passport or travel document at the designated Iranian Consulate or airport, as specified in your application after paying the visa stamp fee.

Importance of the Visa Grant Notice:

• Collection Requirement: When collecting your visa at the consulate, the visa grant notice is the primary document required by consulate officials.
• Airport Collection: If collecting your visa upon arrival at an airport, you need to present the visa grant notice to the visa office located before passport control and collect the visa document.
• Boarding Verification: If you plan to collect the visa on arrival and have not yet obtained it before departure, airlines may request the visa grant notice to confirm that a visa is awaiting collection at your destination.
