Staring at people, especially Iranian women, and kissing and hugging non-homosexuals in public places is incompatible with Iranian public culture. Also, the pioneering of men in reaching out to Iranian women is also contrary to the rules of the association. In Iranian law, such cases are not very popular.

In the Iranian culture of mosques, shrines are respected and their visit, like all other religious sites around the world, requires respectful behavior and humility. Because of the congregation’s prayer at noon and after sunset, it is not possible for tourists to visit some of the great mosques. Visits will not be interrupted after the congregational prayer lasts a few minutes.

In Iranian law, women wear hijabs. However, the Iranian veil differs greatly from what is used in some countries and is varied and colorful. Any type of dress that is not too thin and covers the hands, feet and hair, is considered to be an Iranian veil and there are no restrictions on the color and design of the dress. This hijab is enough for a trip to Iran. In other words, in Iran, the veil is not treated excessively and you will find out by watching the coverage of Iranian citizens.
Under Iranian law for men, wearing sleeveless blouses and trousers that are too short, though not legally prohibited, is not permitted in public places. It is necessary to cover some of the hair for tourist women in Iran. It is advisable for tourist women to wear a scarf or shawl in their handbag in order to respect the culture of their host community, in order not to have problems preparing it at the airport. If you don’t have a scarf with you, there is nothing special except spending a little time and money buying it from the store.
Alcohol and Drug Laws
