The Iranian Ministry of Industry: Policy on Car Imports Continues

According to a report by the channel خبرفوری ࡆ اخبارفوری مذاکره ࡆ جنگ فوری, the spokesperson for the Iranian Ministry of Industry, Mine and Trade presented the updated data on car imports for recent years. According to the data, about 60,000 vehicles were imported in 1403, and in 1404 the number rose to about 75,000 units. The ministry emphasizes that these achievements were reached while "exerting minimal pressure on the country's foreign currency quotas" according to خبرفوری.

Regarding the continuation of the policy, the spokesperson emphasized that there is no change in the ministry's guideline regarding car imports. However, heading into the year 1405, the ministry noted that an additional regulatory process will be required: "Due to the requirements for implementing the 1405 budget law, customs rates on vehicles must receive the approval of the Council of Ministers."

The report, which was also published simultaneously by آخرین خبر, highlights the ongoing engagement of the administration in Tehran in balancing the need to renew the vehicle fleet with the difficult economic and currency limitations facing the country.
