Connecting through another country?

Transit rules depend on your specific routing, so check the country you connect through separately, or analyse your full itinerary.

US travel advisory: Iran — Level 4 (Do Not Travel)
WARNThe US State Department publishes these advisories for your route. Iran: Level 4 — Do Not Travel (as of 2025-12-05). This is the State Department's highest advisory. Consular help may be limited or unavailable; review the country page and confirm your insurance covers the situation before committing.

Travellers from other countries should also check their own government's advisory.
