Landing visa is applicable to China passport holders who leave the country from a third country (or Hong Kong and Macao) and arrive in Iran from the designated port of entry without having to apply for an ordinary visa in advance. After arriving at the designated port of entry, submit the application materials at the counter in landing visa and pay the formalities fee on the spot.
Application fee: 100 euro or equivalent in cash (visa fee varies frequently, but this is the maximum).
Insurance: landing visa needs insurance, which can be prepared in advance or purchased on site. The insurance fee is $65,438 +05.
Duration of stay: 30 days (according to the latest news, since September, Iran has indicated that landing visa will grow to three months, and China tourists can obtain tourist visas valid for three months at the designated ports of entry, to be determined).

Iranian visa record on arrival
Landing processing time: 2065438+June 28th, 2007.
Number of entries: single entry
From: Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, transfer from Dubai to Tehran.
Show materials: passport (yes, only passport), no photos, only photos of the first page of my passport.
Fill in the application form on the spot, buy insurance on the spot and pay the visa fee in cash.
Travelers need to provide the information and address of their contacts in landing visa when filling out the form, so it is recommended that you book the hotel in advance for future reference.
According to information from official website and other forums, an invitation letter is required for visas to land in Iran, and travelers need to show it to the visa officer after landing. Actually, I didn't make any preparations. My friend in Iran gave me his phone number and address and asked me to fill out the visa application form. No problem. The visa office didn't call him to confirm.
Waiting time: as soon as I get off the plane, I'll run to the counter for visa on arrival. The processing speed is really not fast. I waited 40 minutes to finish it.
Friendly reminder:
1. The list of materials listed by official website is as complete as possible. Although I only provided my passport, it doesn't mean that I don't need photos and round-trip air tickets next time I go to apply. After all, this is just in case.
2. Iran is a country where girls need to wear headscarves when entering or leaving the country. It is best to avoid short-sleeved shorts. It is too hot to help.
Although Iran is close to Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Yemen and other countries, there is no war in Iran. It is very, very safe. Don't worry! The Iranian people are too warm and friendly to the people of China.
I hope everyone can get visas and enter the country smoothly.
