The time to issue visas to American tourists has been halved from four weeks to two weeks, the head of the Iran Tour Operators Association has told the Iranian Students News Agency (ISNA). Ebrahim Pourfaraj was quoted as saying this was an “exclusive privilege” for Americans because they are such big spenders! But nationals of most countries do not even need to get a visa in advance; they can pick them up on arrival in Iran, a privilege denied to Americans, Canadians and Britons.
