Is there any other frozen ass ridevr traveling through Iran at the moment?

Cheers!
Hi, you have tried to get the visa in Trabzon without success?
It's the first time I hear this info since a long time...
Can you give more details about that?

With UK, US or Canadian passport there is no way to get a visa without a tour.

Getting in with a car is fine, if you do not tell the agency. Obviously you cannot hide your nationality from them.

Hi Roro,

Yes, I tried it in Trabzon and Batumi, but they wouldn't do it without the code. From what I found online they were doing it until last November, and after I only saw negative comments. But I also read that they change it often, so it might work again.

Deepstar, I got the visa with a Brazilian passport.

Btw, Iran is indeed one of the best countries I've been to. I'm gonna extend my stay here, even though my Pakistani visa is expiring and I'll have to send my passport to the embassy in Berlin (where I was living) to get a new one. Fantastic people.

Cheers,
Jacques

Iran visa in Trabzon

I confirm that is impossible to get Iran visa in Trabzon without code.
I was in this situation 1 month ago. I had to buy code in fast procedure and got the visa in Erzurum.
Be careful of free days in Iran and Turkey. The embasies and tour operator can slow your trip.

IMO you can lie becouse there is no different betwen visas.
You will get visa in Prague and there is no any info about your kind of transport.

Thanks for your infos Bartosz,

To be more precise: I understand you have only enter the name of the cities and hotels on Key2Persia application form .
But what do you have written when they ask "Travel Entrance To Iran " on this application form? And what do you reply to their question about car?
If you prefer you can give your reply by private message..
