Tunisia announces visa-free entry for Iranians
The Tunisian Ministry of Foreign Affairs confirmed that ordinary Iranian passport holders will be exempt from the entry visa, if they stay in the country up to 15 days.
This decision aligns with mutual actions taken by both Tehran and Tunisia. It follows the Iranian cabinet’s approval last year to lift visa requirements for 32 countries, a move supported by Iranian Minister of Cultural Heritage, Tourism, and Handicrafts Ezzatollah Zarghami.
In December 2023, Zarghami stated that the Ministry of Cultural Heritage, Tourism, and Handicrafts proposed the visa waiver, aiming to enhance global engagement and attract more tourists to Iran.
Alireza Bikdeli, Deputy for Consular Parliamentary and Iranians Affairs of the Foreign Ministry in Tehran, had earlier highlighted that citizens from 28 countries, including Tunisia, do not require visas for tourism in Iran as of February 4, 2024.
