According to the recent decision of the Central Cank of
Iran, the allowed currency in cash that each traveler can take to Iran is ten
thousand US Dollars (or the same amount in other currencies). Before this, each
traveler was allowed to take 5000 US Dollars to Iran.
The amounts of currency exceeding ten thousand US Dollars
should be declared to the customs administrations of the international airports
of Iran upon arrival and then the extra sum will be deposited at the Melli Bank of Iran at that airport. The travelers will be granted a bank receipt
including a code and this extra sum can be taken back at their departure.
According to the new rules, the services of depositing the exceeding cash is
going to be rendered in 14 main custom ports where Melli bank counters are
available.
Controlling the high amounts of currency entering each country
is a common method of preventing money laundering.
Tourists are allowed to take 10,000 dollars to Iran. |
