Iran backs private sector with free booths at ITB Berlin 2025
Iran’s deputy tourism minister announced full support for the country’s private tourism sector to participate in the ITB Berlin 2025, one of the world’s leading travel trade shows.
Anoushirvan Mohseni-Bandpey stated that, given the challenges faced by private tourism operators, particularly in inbound tourism, the government has provided free 100-square-meter exhibition spaces and booth construction services for Iranian travel agencies, ILNA reported.
“In line with the administration’s policy of maximum support for the private sector, facilitating their presence in global tourism markets remains a priority,” he said.
A total of 12 Iranian travel agencies are attending this year’s event, which runs from March 14-16 in Berlin, Germany. The ITB Berlin, hosting exhibitors from 190 countries and drawing over 100,000 visitors, is a key platform for networking and business expansion in the global travel industry.
Iran’s participation aligns with the event’s theme, “The World of Travel is Here”, leveraging international exposure to enhance its tourism sector’s global reach.
