To enhance the tourism sector, the Iranian government has declared that Indian visitors can now enter the country without a visa.
Iran’s cabinet unilaterally abolished visa requirements for Indian visitors.
Additionally, visa requirements were lifted for
visitors from 32 other countries, such as Russia, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Japan, and the UAE.
Ezzatollah Zarghami, the Iranian Minister of Cultural Heritage, Tourism, and Handicrafts, sees the elimination of visa requirements and the promotion of tourism as a means to counter Iranophobia campaigns.
