Entering Iran on bike not registered in my name

Hello people,

I wonder if anyone has the answer to this tricky question!

I am hoping to borrow a bike in the autumn to ride from Europe to Iran. But I won't be the registered keeper. Will that be a problem when entering Iran (or indeed, any other non-Euro countries)?

Any thoughts/experiences gratefully received.
Lois

Hello,

1-TURKEY
A-Letter of attorney given by the official owner name of the bike to your complete name as it is in your passport and stamped-confirmed by a notary,consulate or embassy.
B-Or document given by Touring-Automobile club in your country if member of international AIT or FIA organisations.
C-No carnet needed.

2-IRAN
A-Letter of attorney
B-Sometimes they ask for official persian translation of the above document.
C-Carnet is a must..Also available without carnet but need a lot of time,document,money and patience..Better never sign documents you dont know the meaning at any bordergate..

Hope helps.

Wish you all the best.



Keep this law article as a proof if you may need while entering Turkey.

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
