Compliance Note

YMYL Compliance & Safety Commitment

Every Iran remittance request is reviewed before payment details are confirmed.

We review each request to confirm that the transfer is a personal, non-commercial remittance and that the sender, recipient, payment route, and stated purpose are consistent with the corridor requirements.

Reviews are informed by the personal-remittance guidelines of the sending country — U.S. OFAC guidance for family-support transfers, FINTRAC guidance in Canada, AUSTRAC guidance in Australia, and applicable UK/EU rules.

Not supported

Business settlement, commercial import/export, real estate acquisition, and transactions involving sanctioned entities are not eligible for this service.

The Iranian community in Dubai

Dubai hosts one of the largest Iranian communities outside Iran, built on generations of Gulf trade — Persian merchants shaped districts like Bastakiya and Deira long before today's expat wave. Funding is flexible: UAE bank transfers in AED are standard, and cash deposit options exist for senders who prefer them. You confirm a live AED to IRR quote on Telegram in English or Farsi, and the Rial payout reaches your recipient's Shetab card after compliance review.

Frequently Asked Questions

No — request an AED quote on Telegram, pay by UAE bank transfer (or ask support about cash deposit options), and the recipient receives Rial directly on their Shetab card in Iran.
AED bank transfer from any UAE bank is the standard route; AED balances on Wise or Revolut and cash deposit options are also available. Support confirms the active deposit details once your quote is confirmed, and every transfer is reviewed against the UAE corridor's rules.
Smaller verified personal transfers (between $15 and $1,000 equivalent) are typically paid out to Iranian Shetab bank accounts in under 10 minutes once local funding is verified. Larger transactions require manual compliance review and can take 24 to 72 hours.
Faster. Physical sarafis need a storefront visit, cash drop-off, or manual bank draft. Online, verified transfers of $15–$1,000 equivalent pay out in under 10 minutes once your local payment clears; larger transfers take 24–72 hours after review.
All requests from Dubai undergo structured sanctions screening. We authenticate sender details via the originating bank transfer account (no passport uploads required on-site) and check recipient bank credentials in Iran before Rial payout.
