🇮🇷 Iran for 🇪🇬 EG citizens

Iran is a cash country for most travelers: foreign Visa/Mastercard typically won't work, so bring enough EUR/USD and exchange locally. In cities, exchange offices (sarrafi) are often the most practical places to get a competitive rate.

Learn the 'toman' trick on day one: locals usually quote prices in tomans, where 1 toman = 10 rials (effectively 'add a zero'). Confirm whether a price is in rials or tomans before you pay to avoid a 10x mistake.
