Customs and import context

Customs authority and filings

Imports are cleared by Islamic Republic of Iran Customs Administration. The importer of record (or its broker) files the declaration; Anxin coordinates but does not act as importer.

  • Registrations and filings are confirmed with the importer's customs broker.

Import taxes to expect by name: customs duty and levies. Rates and duties are confirmed by the importer's broker for the exact product classification.

Iran is subject to international sanctions measures. Screening is done before any assessment and many requests cannot be accepted.

Languages and documents

Official or main business languages: Persian. Commercial invoice, packing list and battery descriptions should use the product names the importer will declare.
