Import requirements & restrictions

Import licensing required
Regulated products imported into Iran require a Certificate of Conformity (COC) from Iran's National Standards Organization (INSO); some categories (pharmaceuticals, electronics, automobiles among them) additionally require sector-specific permits from the relevant regulatory agency. This entry describes only Iran's own domestic import regime -- it deliberately excludes third-country (e.g. US/OFAC) sanctions on trade with Iran, which are a different country's restriction, not Iran's own rule.
