Iran visa questions
Iran visa from Dubai: what we can do, and what we will not pretend to
We arrange the flights and coordinate the paperwork through partner agencies. The rules themselves belong to the Iranian authorities — here is where to find them and what to have ready.

Visa applications processed weekly at peak, 2008–2015
We are not going to publish Iran’s visa rules. Who needs a visa, which kind and for how long depends on your nationality and changes without much notice — and it is decided by the Iranian authorities, not by an agency in Deira. Anything you read about it, here or anywhere, is a reason to check the official source, not an answer.
What we can do is the part around it. We process UAE visas ourselves; for entry to other countries, Iran included, we coordinate through partner agencies and tell you plainly which of the two you are getting. And we keep the flight in the same file, so the dates line up.
What our desk does for an Iran trip
Coordination, said plainly
Where an Iran visa is needed, we work through partner agencies — and we say so rather than presenting it as our own.
Flights in the same file
The ticket and the visa timing kept together, so a fixed date on one does not break the other.
UAE residence, checked
For residents, we can look at your UAE visa so that the trip does not leave you unable to return.
Farsi at the desk
The questions answered in Farsi, Arabic or English, every day from 8:30 AM to 8:30 PM.
Before you apply for anything
- 1
Check the official source
Iran’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs publishes the requirements for your nationality. Start there.
- 2
Check your passport
Its validity date, and blank pages. Many countries ask for months of validity beyond your trip.
- 3
Check your UAE residence
If you live in the UAE, make sure your residence will still be valid when you come back.
- 4
Then book together
Tell the desk your dates; we will line up the flight with whatever the visa needs.

Questions we get asked
Do I need a visa for Iran?
It depends on your nationality, and the answer belongs to the Iranian authorities. Check the Ministry of Foreign Affairs’ official information for your passport before you book anything you cannot change.
Can you get an Iran visa for me?
We coordinate it through partner agencies, and will tell you plainly that this is what you are getting. We process UAE visas ourselves.
Should I book the flight before the visa?
Talk to us first. A refundable or changeable fare can make sense while a visa is pending; we will tell you which fares allow that before you pay.
Do Iranian passport holders need anything from you?
Only the ticket, usually — but UAE residents should check their residence status before travelling. The desk can look at it with you.
Ask us before you apply
Tell us your nationality, your UAE status and your dates. We will tell you what we can arrange and where to check the rest.
