Hi.
What's your first name.
There is NO 3-month Iran visa for any one. Irish or not. As far as I know.
There are 2 choices. Option 1. Apply for airport visa (voa) at, for example, IK Airport. The visa is good for two weeks and may be extended later for up to 30 days more. Option 2. U may apply for visa through an Iranian travel agency. Most charge 35 euros for their services and on top of that you will have to pay the visa fee itself, which could exceed $100. I do not know. This kind of visa is valid for 30 days though. Good luck.amir in tehran.

PS send me a pm if u have more questions.

Hello theworldjog ,
I assure you that Iran is as one of the safest countries in the world that each traveler can have the experience of visiting it. Its visa process is not so difficult, too. Fill in an application form and send it with your passport copy to an approved travel agency and get an authorization number .this kind of visa will be valid for 90 days and you can travel to Iran during these90 days for maximally 1 month (it may be extended but can’t be guaranteed at all).
Other kind of Iran visa which called VOA is for only specific nationals like Irish. A 14 days visa that can be extend to other 14 days .

any recent updates on travelling in Iran?
Is there anything special to do or see in February? Is it worth being in Tehran around February 10-11?

Best

One of the safest countries we have been to. The only danger could be while crossing the road :-)
