| Once I am in Iran, can I get my visa extended so that I can stay longer |

Yes,
you can. It is normally quite straightforward to get an extension to tourist,
entry and pilgrimage visas. To get an extension you need to go the nearest
Police Department of Alien Affairs before your visa expires. You will be asked
for the reasons for your request for an extension. Extensions are normally
granted for up to two months and are free of charge. Work permit visas can be extended by the Police Department of Alien Affairs in coordination with the Department of Alien Employment at the Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs. Any request must be supported by an Iranian sponsor. |
