Customs clearance is one of the most critical stages in the international logistics process. Completing this process correctly helps prevent delays, fines, and additional costs while ensuring smooth cargo movement through the supply chain.
In this guide by Magic Travix, we outline every official step of customs clearance in Iran, helping you handle your shipments efficiently, securely, and professionally.
🧾 The first step in customs clearance is registering your import order with the Ministry of Industry, Mine, and Trade and submitting product data in the EPL system (Iran’s Single Window Trade Portal).
At this stage, you must prepare the following documents:
Valid commercial card
Proforma invoice
Packing list
Required import permits
📌 Note: Any missing or incorrect documentation may delay the process and increase storage costs.
🗂️ After registration, the importer must submit the customs declaration through the EPL portal.
Based on the product’s type, value, and risk level, customs assigns one of three clearance routes:
🟢 Green Route: Immediate clearance with minimal inspection
🟡 Yellow Route: Document review with possible partial inspection
🔴 Red Route: Full document verification and physical examination
The more accurate your documentation, the higher your chances of qualifying for the Green Route.
🕵️♂️ Customs officers assess the declared tariff (HS Code), value, and attached documents for accuracy.
For shipments placed in the yellow or red routes, physical inspection ensures the cargo matches the declared information.
📌 Correct valuation and documentation prevent classification disputes and financial penalties.
🪪 Depending on the type of product, specific permits from regulatory bodies are required.
Common examples include:
Iran National Standard Organization
Food and Drug Administration or Veterinary Organization
Atomic Energy Organization or Quarantine Department
After obtaining the necessary permits, the final customs tariff (HS Code) is approved and recorded.
📌 Lack of proper permits or tariff mismatches are among the most common causes of clearance delays.
💰 Once the declaration is verified, customs calculates import duties, value-added tax, and other applicable charges.
After payment through the online system, the customs clearance certificate is issued.
Online payment methods ensure accuracy, faster processing, and reduced manual errors.
📦 Once clearance is granted, the cargo is released from the customs warehouse.
At this stage, a warehouse release note is issued, and the shipment is prepared for final delivery.
