Are you in love with an Iranian girl? Are you gonna ask her to marry you and be you forever wife? Honestly, Good Idea. Iranian women are very loyal to their family.
Yet always every country has its laws for marriage, so does Iran. If you have a non Iranian nationality, mean if you are a foreigner, There are problems to marry your wife.
Previously, it was very easy for non-Iranian to come to Iran and marry their girl. Usually they used to pass a short process, sign some papers, then have an Islamic Legal Nikah and marry their girl forever. They could easily take her to their country and have happy life. In this way, many Pakistanis, Arabs and westerners got married to Iranian girl in Iran.
Yet after a while, some Iranian boys tried to use the opportunity. They made themselves such a very rich handsome foreigner and proposed girls to marry them. Those stupid girls used to believe they are real rich handsome foreigners. Dreaming to live in the west, and its glamour, had made their eyes blind to see the reality. At the moment those boys worked good on girls’ mind. When they were completely sure that girl is in love with them, they asked her to give them some money, for they have “Dollars” and don’t want converting it to “IR Rials”. Anyway those poor girls used to sell their gold sets and take their cash from bank and give them to the dishonest guy. And before having legal marriage, he would run away.
After too many protests from girls to family court , Iranian ministry of justice tried to find a solution. And they found finally.
Since then, all Iranian guys who want to marry a foreigner girl, don’t have any problem. Yet when a foreigner guy want to marry an Iranian girl, both of them need to pass a long process and give some documents to prove their honesty. A letter from Interpol ( International Criminal Police Organization ) that the man hasn’t had any crime before and never went to jail. A letter from country of origin that by now the man is not married to other woman in his country and he is known as single, And if the woman is Muslim, based on Islamic rule, a letter that proves the guy converted to Islam too.
The girl also need to give kind of document. Personally I think it is very good job to support girls, for they finally get sure with who they gonna marry. Yet the process is too long and frustrating and takes almost 2 or 3 months and both girl and boy must stay in Iran until finishing the process. It is long time for a couple who know each other enough and dont need to go through the process. Usually the guy bcs of his job or his visa, can not stay that long in Iran. At the moment, they can easily go to Turkey and marry in a week. So why they have to pass that long time?
Culture of Iran, particularly culture of big cities, allow boy and girl to be as girl friend and boy friend. Most of time the relationship is under control of family, yet sometimes they have sexual relationships too. Yet when they get engaged, all family expect them to have a wedding and start their married life. There is not kind of too long engagement in Iran. The most time can be 2 years, and not over that. Anyway, families are commited to have Islamic lifetime Nikah for engagement.
There is no limitation after Nikah for new couple to be with each other, yet they are always adviced strongly to have a wedding in short time and go to their home.
I know it is not culture of many western countries. They have longterm engagement, even 5, 6, 7 or 8 years or sometimes more. And even after that long time maybe they don’t marry at all, or they marry when they have babies. So a westerner who gonna marry an Iranian girl sometimes gets confused by this culture.
About dowry or big wedding, it is related to couple. And nowadays those are girl and boy who decide about having or not to have a dowry or wedding.
Anyway, Girl in Iranian culture is always respected and a lovely part of family. More parents love to have girl for their first baby instead of boy. When Iranian family has a girl, they like to introduce to every single person they see that they have girl.
There are legal and cutural problems to marry an Iranian girl. There are good and bad people every where, but most of the time, married life will be fortunate. Anyway
I took the idea of the post, when i was checking my Search Engine Terms and i saw somebody has searched this sentence: “problems with marrying a girl from iran”. It was just interesting for me!
Updated: For some reasons, i had to change the foto. The new foto is a sign for Iranian ministry of foreigner affairs in Iran..

Haha, I am glad you put in that PS. I thought for a minute you were looking for a husband lol
Ya Haqq!
October 6, 2007 at 1:52 am
Irving, No, i dont need husband anymore. Thank you!
October 6, 2007 at 1:56 am
LOL I found the same in my Search Engine Terms “problems with marrying a Saudi girl” lmao
ps. “i dont need husband anymore” HAHA why is that?
October 6, 2007 at 1:58 am
Lalla Mona, LOL.. You need to write a post about problems to marry a Saudi woman.
P.S: “HAHA why is that?”; Ha ha, Just bcs i have my husband!
October 6, 2007 at 4:49 am
humm, Iranian girls are so sweet ,cute and sexy
, When my sister visited Asfahan, she told me that they are free as Syria, girls and boys walks together, not like the way media imaging iran, like a strict country.
yet I prefer a Syrian girls for “my” marriage, I don’t like to marry a woman different from my region, I don’t know why, just thinking of that makes my head crazy, thinking of many issues that i have to find a solution for it.
even in Syria, i only prefer to marry a perfect match, that’s mean, she must be, Syrian, Arabic, Muslim, Sunni.
I know, you may think I’m not open mind, but I had terrible experience with girls who are not a match for me.
—-
the picture above for the Iranian girl, wow, awesome, what a sexy eyes.
October 6, 2007 at 5:23 am
Shahrzad, do you have phone number or address of the girl in picture?
… Pls send it to me while I prepare Interpol Certificates ….or arrange the tickets to Turkey 
Some dreams better be only dreams
October 6, 2007 at 7:50 am
Alloush, Your sister is really right. Girls and boys are as free as other countries.
Really i dont mean with this post you need to marry an Iranian girl.
I just wanted to explain for those people who ARE in love with an Irani girl and decided to marry, how many cultural and legal problems they have!
Of course that’s better every person gets married to who is his/her match, to have less conflict.
Zios, the foto is poster of a movie, named as “Marriage; Iranian Style” about marriage between a non-Iranian and Iranian and its problems. That woman in the foto is an actress: “Shila Khodadad”.
As long as you can not marry a canadian actress, you can not marry an Iranian actress too!
So your dream better be dream..
October 6, 2007 at 8:12 am
You don’t even want to know what trash used to come in my serach items!! Glad I’m not listed anymore.
Good post as always, Shahrzad!
October 6, 2007 at 11:04 am
That’s surely a long procedure, but at least, the girl is safe
October 6, 2007 at 11:52 am
Ok then I decided to enter the movie sphere in Iran by marrying Shila Khodadad, lol, is she married, how old is she, and by the wy, where can we find Iranian movies translated to Arabic.
October 6, 2007 at 12:43 pm
lol so because of a FEW con artists they brought that stupid law ?! why did they not tell the familly to teach their girls not to be so naive ?!
hmm a bit romantic and political ? is that not a bit much to ask ?
that is so cool that in iran they want to have a girl first as a baby and when they do , they introduce her to everyone ? wow I always got from iranin culture that they love woman would you agree shahrzad?
October 6, 2007 at 1:19 pm
interesting post! there are many probs in marrying a saudi woman too!!
is that bride in the pic wearing a hijab under the tiara?
October 6, 2007 at 1:36 pm
Achelois, looool, i recieve kind of funny things in my search Item. Yet i can not open those ideas here.
bbZuSh, Yes true, yet would be good if they had some ways for couple who know each other for long time
Alloush, looool, I think the actress is 30 and something, and married. For Iranian movies you need to go to Cultural Center of Iranian embassy in Syria and ask them. When i was in Syria they were very active. They will help you.. Maybe you can find what you want. Anyway i also search here to find sites to download Iranian movie with Arabic subtitle.
amal, That’s really for protect girls. Nobody can behave girl not to be stupid. Always there are stupid ones every where.
Iranians say that a girl is who always helps parents when they are old, but a boy goes after his wife family. That’s why they prefer to have girl for first baby.
youngMuslimah, Really there is kind of legal problems marrying saudi girls too? Ye, the bride has hijab under the tiara.. Women in Iranian movies also need to have hijab..
October 6, 2007 at 3:48 pm
unbelievable!!!
the best online Ad, I have ever seen before, about Iranian girls!
October 6, 2007 at 4:10 pm
bizbloger, Man baratun inja aval penglish minevisam, rastesh in entry tablighati nabud ke intori minevisid!! Mano hamsaram in moshkelat ro poshte sar gozashte budim, khastam komak konam be bandegane khoda
It is not an Ad really. I just said the legal problems that a westerner or non-iranian can have during marring an iranian girl and that Iranian girls are not oppressed by men. I just wanted to show real place of girls in Iran!
October 6, 2007 at 5:33 pm
After sept. 11 in Bosnia its almost the same rules..Bosnian women are also known by very good wifes (and modest too
), so many people want to marry Bosnian girls. I know some Arabs who came here only for that reason..We dont ask huge mahr (dowry), he doesnt have to be Richy Rich, but “needs to be understaning, almost have a political view to discuss with her, have a sincere and honest heart and abit romantic. He needs to understand her spirit “, its MUST HAVE. lool 
Anyway, the law now is making thigs diffiucult now, just like in Iran, but I guess its for our own good. Bosnian women are also known as soft hearted, so they fall in love easily
October 6, 2007 at 7:26 pm
Good thing that I am not looking to get married to an Iranian girl otherwise I would have to got through that long process. lol
October 6, 2007 at 7:29 pm
the bottom line is he who wants to marry an iranian girl should make sure that she is also capable to adjust to cultures beyond the boarders. It takes two to tango; if she is stupid she should have achance to get what she is worth and if she is smart enough she needs no government regulators to decide for her.
I agree with the others about Shila Khodadad; doesnt look stupid and she is worth the trouble of obtaining an Interpol clearance; do you know when is she expected to have a divorce?
Message is received, but some men are worth waiting more than 2 years for.. what you think?
October 6, 2007 at 8:06 pm
leila, loool, so there is kind of problem in Bosnia too, I agree with you about Bosnian girls. They are very beautiful. And golden heart. But i didnt know they fall in love easily. It was interesting..
Aliana, ha haaaa, oh Alia, nobody expects you to marry any girl in the world believe me, not Iranian, not any other girls. So you are very lucky!
Xavier, I agree with you really. When a girl is stupid, she can harm herself in other way, even if being controled always. And a smart girl doesnt need kind of process for she knows what she wants really. I think this law must have some easier ways. Anyway..
BTW, Shila Khodadad loves her husband so much!
And just ONE man worth waiting more than 2 years for..
October 6, 2007 at 8:21 pm
I dont knw if anyone has suffered from this law more than i had suffered
I fancy Iranian beauty very much and I was planning that out of 4 one of my wife will be an Iranian 
I keed I keed!!
By the way if you cant marry an Iranian Women can we date em easily
. DOnt tell me their are laws for dating as well

Interesting information about laws and culture in your country. I guess there is a reason for it to be this way.
I too thought you were looking for a husband.
October 6, 2007 at 11:34 pm
UmmAbdurrahman, sincerely I just wanted to explain the legal and cultural problems. Not more.. I dont know why all people here got wrong msg from the entry.
I have my husband!
October 7, 2007 at 6:42 am
Thank you for this post Shahrzad. I’m so glad to find your blog. I am currently experiencing the challenges that are presented to the children in a cross-cultural marriage. So many to face, especially in today’s political climate. However, I believe very much in love. If the couple is in love, then whatever challenges they or their children face are nothing are nothing. I exist in this world because of great love between an Iranian man and an Italian woman. I’m glad that my parents were willing to overcome all of the challenges they faced. Besides, anyone who doesn’t know that Iranian women are worth those legal and cultural challenges, doesn’t deserve to marry one anyway.
Mandana
October 7, 2007 at 1:01 pm
c’mon people, it was sooo obvious from previous posts she is deeplyyyy in love already
anyway, if she was looking for husband she wouldn’t write about difficulties, sah??
October 7, 2007 at 1:15 pm
Leila, Thank you..
October 7, 2007 at 3:59 pm
The laws may seem long winded but given the stupid actions of a few, its better to be safe than sorry.
October 7, 2007 at 5:46 pm
Dear Shahrzaad,
So, there is no way to get a Iranian girl…
Anyway, it is a very good post, brief but informative on many aspects.
Thanks,
October 8, 2007 at 1:56 am
Sumera, Your words are true. But i think it is about kind of people who dont know each others. Anyway when they see there are kind of laws, they go to other country. Isnt it better that a girl gets married in her country, than she goes to other country, alone or with family?
Finally all of them choose the second way, going to other country for Nikah..
Anil, Welcome..
October 8, 2007 at 6:52 am

October 8, 2007 at 7:41 am
cool, I really like the motto – na sharqi na gharbi I wish I had invented this motto :p
October 8, 2007 at 9:32 am
Aliana, oh really? I didnt know you know farsi. You know meaning of “Na Sharqi, Na Qarbi” ?
October 8, 2007 at 5:01 pm
Neither east nor West.. easy.. but i don’t know farsi
October 8, 2007 at 5:06 pm
Xavier, Oh true.. So you are smart, no need to know farsi
October 8, 2007 at 5:58 pm
ditto what Xavier said
October 8, 2007 at 8:11 pm
yeah i read something abt saudi women marrying foreigners..dont remember what though..
lol at women in hijab in the movies. waht’s the point really if you’re gonna wear tons of makeup? lol.
i didnt real all the comments here, but bits of it. are u married? lol, i read soemthing like ‘i have my husband already’. what does that mean??
October 9, 2007 at 10:18 pm
nice post:)
October 11, 2007 at 12:52 am
Hi. Shahrazade. Interesting article. My best friend married an Irani brother last year and I always wondered about how inter-racial marriages were seen in Iran. The Khaleeji Arab countries are pretty much the same with their marriage laws, also. I personally thought it was unfair a first but having now read the historical background it makes sense.
Thanks. Salaams.
October 11, 2007 at 2:35 am
Xalimah,
Hi, salam. Inter-racial marriage is not something weird in Iran. one of my friends also who is a religious Shia got married a Sunni man years ago and now they are much in love.
There is no legal and religious ban for marrying a sunni and shia. Maybe some families are sensitive, but that’s not bcs of shari’a or Law. That’s their personal opinion.
There are cities in Iran that population is sunni shia both (such as Mahabad, Talesh, Gonbad and some provinces) And kind of marriages happen.
The only condition for a muslim girl is her man be muslim too. Nobody even ask what sect he is or something else. Even for filling forms or something, they just mention word “Islam” for both sunni and shia, and other religions next to them.
Even name of religion doesnt get mentioned in ID card, even for other religions. So you can never get who is who, until he utters by own!
October 17, 2007 at 2:56 pm
I think its great that the Iranian authorities are taking action to stop this dishonest business
October 29, 2007 at 6:48 pm
Hijab, Welcome to my blog. It is blessing to have you here. Ye, sometimes it really helps. But not for couple who know each other enough.

November 22, 2007 at 4:08 am
I have a SERIOUS question…anyone know what the government of Iran would do if I married an Iranian girl in another land (Turkey) and then came to Iran to live with her in our life together as a married couple? I am an American and have converted to Islam already!
November 22, 2007 at 10:49 am
Dan, Of course there is no problem for you. I am Iranian and i did marry a westerner. You should not be worried. I know Iranians who got married to Americans too
November 27, 2007 at 3:17 am
Dan, I am extremely interested in knowing what happens with you and this Iranian girl. I am planning to meet my fiancee on Kish island sometime in December and have also already converted to Shi’a Islam. I’m wondering if I can even marry her on Kish or we must meet in Turkey and obtain a visa through a consulate there. My hope is to bring her to the U.S. eventually and I am going through a tangle of research right now to see which visa could help us more (k1 for fiancees? k3 for married couples?) and exactly what I’m up against. If you or anybody wants to contact me about this kind of thing, I’m stephenpitkin@yahoo.com
November 27, 2007 at 1:46 pm
Hi, I am Englishman planning on marrying Iranian woman. I already converted to Islam. We plan to get married in Iran and i would like to know what are the steps to take for citizenship after the marriage as i would like to live in Iran for a while before applying to go to England with her….and there lies another question. As England does not recognise Islamic marriages can i marry her in an English ceremony too, after that does anyone know what the procedure is for taking her to England for visiting my family etc. Will being married to me make her visa application easier or are there other unforseen problems.
Would appreciate any help you can give me on any of these matters or other points i may have missed.
(In advance, i appreciate and thany you for all your help)
November 28, 2007 at 2:43 pm
Is it true that an Iranian woman can not travel without occupancy, if before marriage with family and after marriage with husband. Can anyone help me
December 8, 2007 at 6:21 am
How about foreigner girl marry with iranian guy? do we have problem as well
December 8, 2007 at 9:53 am
Lyn, There is no problem for foreigner girl marry with iranian guy. They dont have kind of problem to wait for 3 month. They just marry in a minute.
December 8, 2007 at 6:27 pm
its not just non iranian marrying iranian girl. its really difficult for an iranian to marry someone outside of iran and to leave the country. europe isn’t so difficult, but america! my brother who has american citizenship is married to an iran ian girl. he left her to come to america for 7 months. 7 whole months they didn’t see eachother, except for two weeks in turkey. he tried so hard to get her at least a visa to come to america! it didn’t work, and in the end it did nothing but affect their marriage and make them both suffer. now they’ll probably never come to america. another of my friends who is american convert to islam and who is living in iran with his wife, can’t get a visa for his wife either. and his family has only met her once in dubai and this past summer in italy. they can’t go to america because the american govt won’t give her an american visa.
December 10, 2007 at 1:09 pm
but another problem come is foreign womenwho marry with iran man will lose her origin nationality once the marriage is registered. Even the future children cannot have dual citizenship.
Iranian goverment so stricth,isn’t it? They dont give me choise…now i really confuse to marry him..
December 15, 2007 at 9:38 pm
Hi im sophia from iran its my question why our embassy in other countries dont give visit visa for single men they give just bussiness visa
December 19, 2007 at 5:14 pm

December 26, 2007 at 8:42 am
oh man that sounds tragic, it means the guys in Iran are useless and the girls are brainless
December 26, 2007 at 11:25 am

January 6, 2008 at 3:56 am
Do you have Iranian female friends in Minnesota, USA? Between the ages of 29 and 45 who are looking to date an American man who will appreciate them and demonstrate respect? Ah, well, it’s a beautiful daydream.
I do love your snow photographs as well. Very good posts. May I put your site on my blogroll?
Yours,

rationalpsychic, Welcome to my blog. Thank you. Of course you can add my weblog to your blogroll
January 11, 2008 at 8:37 am
I am an American. I married an Iranian man in 1964. I automatically became an Iranian citizen as well as an American citizen. I had to have an Iranian birth certificate and an Iranian passport to go to Iran. We moved there early 1970’s. As long as I was in Iran, they disregarded my American citizenship. My American passport stated that as long as I was living in Iran I would be under the laws of Iran and the U.S. wouldn’t necessarily help me if I ran into trouble. I lived there until November 1978 when my son and I moved back to the U.S. My husband followed later. We were concerned about the revolution coming and we didn’t know how things would go for Americans. I love my husband’s family and my mother-in-law (now deceased) and my sister-in-law are WONDERFUL. I love them so much! I really got along well with all of his very large family and miss those that are still in living in Iran. I have frequent contact by phone with the ones who now live in different parts of the U.S. In response to the person who said you lose your citizenship when you marry an Iranian, my experience as an American has been that I did not lose my American citizenship and my son has dual citizenship.
January 11, 2008 at 5:48 pm
Carole, Your story really touched me. I can say how you felt at the time you left Iran. I am happy you have good memories from your mom and sis in law. I hope someday you again travel to Iran. It is not that bad Media says.. And you’re right. Nobody loses his previous nationality after marriage.
January 13, 2008 at 5:53 pm
Please marry your kind from your own countries! We don’t want women shortage in any particular country for those that live there.
January 13, 2008 at 6:09 pm
Jeff, All humans have been created from one man and one woman and there is no person who be superior to others bcs of his race.
LoVe doesnt need to take permission from this or that person, doesnt know arrogance and haughtiness and doesnt mind conditions like race, religion or nationality. It happens unexpectedly..
January 14, 2008 at 3:54 pm
Dear Shahrzad,
I’m Indian and I’m love with a beautiful Iranian girl. I’m Hindu and she’s muslim. We want to get married, so I have to convert to islam. Can you tell me about the procedure? Do I have to change my name? Also is it allowed for me to practise my religion after converting?
January 15, 2008 at 11:34 pm
Hi Shahrzad,
i’m a persian man,36, live in Israel. i’m a filmmaker.
there is a big persian community in Israel.
right now i work on a movie that tells a story of a persian family that live in a small religious village in Israel.
i like a lot your blog. were do you live?
hope to be in touch.
salam. shalom.
January 16, 2008 at 1:13 pm
sunny, you need to go with her to a mosque in the place you are, and the Imam of mosque will completely explain for you. You are not forced to change your name if it doesnt have any paganised meaning, like name of idols.
Converting is not a game. When you convert (to every religion), you almost change part of your lifestyle. It has its way of worshiping God. So there is no way you practice your previous religion. Think and study enough before you convert.
delshad, Salam/Shalom. Thank you for your comment. I know there is a big Iranian community in Jerusalem. I heard Iranian jews in Israel miss Iran so much and they love to come back. But they’re afraid. That’s true?
January 16, 2008 at 11:32 pm
Hi I am an Iranina and in love with a hindu man. Its been 3.5 years and its so hard for him to understand how certain things I am not allowed to do – like sex before marriage, even kiss cos I do beleive in being pure when i marry him. Can u please shade light on this area. And he says that what he says is final – no questions asked cos he is the man after all but Iranian women are no so behind like women 100 years ago. Is muslim woman not allowed to question her man – if she does then does this mean she is not a good woman??\
January 16, 2008 at 11:49 pm
Roshni,
“Is muslim woman not allowed to question her man?”
In Islam marriage is at first kind of friendship and companionship. Not a ruling system. So you’re allowed to ask any question you want. I know that Indian culture sometimes comes to be very patriarch as well.
I think if he really loves you, has to understand your limitations. And you need to explain for him that what you want is all a secure and full of love marriage and all what he wants will come the best in your sacred married life.
It’s very difficult situation you’re facing with. I know what you mean.
From what you said, You’re good and pure woman, Rushni. He should appreciate you for you’re untouched. That’s the least right for you as woman to want a secure and friendly marriage. No woman needs a boss at home.
January 17, 2008 at 8:35 pm
Shahrazad,
We are both open-minded about our religious beliefs. I don’t have a problem with Islam because Hinduism recognizes every human’s right to his or her own beliefs and own path to God. So when I convert to islam, its more of adding something rather than deleting what existed before. I’m led to believe that most persians share this view in spite of the western media trying to portray islam as intolerant of other religions. Any thoughts?

Dear Shahrzad ,
In one word your website is “wonderful”,I wish I visited it before being cheated with a hindu Canadian guy ,who pretended he is in love with me and to prove his claim, he promissed to take any neccessary legal and religious actions to reach me.For instance , he visited me and my family to show his honesty and wanted to convert to Islam in his next visit, But recently I received a mail from him noting he is a cheap guy to cheat me for about 2 years and he does not deserve me , he has another one in his life.I was shocked and so regertful for myself.This event taught me a good lesson .I recommand Iranian girls to be careful about marring foreigner guys.
All the bests,

Hello Shahrzad,
Thanks for all the useful information!! I had a question about getting married to and Iranian woman in a country like Turkey. Do you have any idea that if we do that, would there be any problem for her to get back into Iran when she goes to visit her family?
Thanks again for the wonderful article.
Stephen
February 11, 2008 at 9:47 pm
Teb, Thank you so much for your compliment and i felt sad to read about your failure in love. May you find your “true” love in the future soon.
Stephen, Of course she can easily come back to Iran. I had been adviced by Iranian ministry of fareign affairs to go to turkey and marry to my non-iranian husband. For it takes almost 10 days and then the couple can come back to Iran.
February 11, 2008 at 11:08 pm
Dear Shahrzad,
Thank you so much! you dont know how relieved I am:) actually I am in USA and she is in Iran. I would be trying to bring her to USA after our marriage, if not we will go to another country. So I was wondering that after she is in USA, and she would go to visit Iran, would there be questions, at the airport… because our marriage would not be recognized, and also single women cannot leave Iran without parents escort.
Thanks a lot again!!
Stephen
February 11, 2008 at 11:21 pm
I also wanted to add the question that do I need to change my religion to get married in Turkey? Is that marriage recognized in Iran?
Regards,
Stephen
February 11, 2008 at 11:46 pm
Welcome. If she is muslim, and you want your marriage be recognised by Iran, you have to also convert to Islam. But for any other religion – if she be christian, zoroastrian or jew- the Iranian recognised marriage is based on the religion’s laws.
February 12, 2008 at 12:09 am
She is Muslim. I dont need my marriage to be recognized in Iran and I dont want to change my religion too. My only doubt was that when we get married in another country, and she lives in USA with me, would there be any problem for her to get back to Iran for a visit?
Thanks!!
Stephen
February 12, 2008 at 12:16 am
For her, there is no problem, for she has Iranian passport too anyway. But for you, if your marriage doesnt be recognised, you need to take visa and it is alittle difficult to take visa for Iran. Not bcs of being American or something. For any other country too.
February 12, 2008 at 12:26 am
Thanks for all your help. God bless you:)
February 15, 2008 at 3:03 pm
Hi Shahrzad,
You have a wonderful website and lots of informative articles. I had a question for you. Are non married Iranian muslim girls allowed to leave Iran for traveling to another country? Also, if they get married to a non Iranian man in another country, and get citizenship of that country, would there be any questions asked upon her return for visiting, like how did you get citizenship of that country etc?
I would be grateful if you could answer my question.
Thanks,
BM
February 15, 2008 at 3:27 pm
B.M., Hi, thank you for your comment. Yes, a single Iranian girl can travel to other countries alone. She has her separated passport and she can take passport by own. But a married woman must have permission from her husband. So she can take passport by own too.
There is NO restriction for them after coming back to Iran and nobody asks them any question. Even nobody ask her non-iranian husband any question.
If they have an Iranian official marriage, then her husband even doesnt need to take a visa to come to Iran. But if their marriage doesnt be officially known by Iran, husband has to take visa. But again for that Iranian woman, there is no problem.
February 17, 2008 at 11:28 am
hello sharazad,I came across this website and not a moment to soon,I am an american and I am in love with an iranian girl,what is the best way for us to get married outside of iran so that I can bring her back to the usa with me,I love her so much,I have never felt this way about anybody before,thanks in advance for all your help
February 17, 2008 at 1:19 pm
ajp127, Welcome. May you can reunite soon and live with love happily ever after.

shahrzad,have you ever heard the song “shahrzad”? by a old band called rennesiance(don’t think I spelled that right)it is a wonderful song!,on another note could you direct me to a web site that can translate farsi into english? or vice versa,I have found many but they do not seem to work right-1001 nights
February 22, 2008 at 6:02 pm
Jeff i agree with uu i mean iam a pakistani girl they dont tlk much bout em wonder why aint that we aint sharif an dat.

Hi, I did not read the contenant of your article, but marry from Irani girl is disaster, specially the if she is Kuwaity citizin like me. asking for a lot of money. after few months she get a divorce from the court with also a lot of money.
They called MAHAR and MUAAKHAR. I think you know what I am talking about. Its againest the islams rules.

I am an american living in Bahrain and I have met an iranian woman I would like to marry. It seems impossible from what I see here in this blog and from the research I have done. Any ideas?
March 8, 2008 at 10:26 pm
There is many posts I mean replies.but I am not agree to all these.coz a true lover dont break the hearts.in 1999 I haad a chance to marry an Iraian girl she was from rich family of Tehran .I told her honestly I am not a rich man .I am a poor man having a small busines in Pakistan.and now I am here for marketing of my goods.But my visa was a visitor.I like Iranian people they are polite,kindhearted and caring.Now I have decided that I must marry in Tehran coz I am lonely and I shal get a benefit from this marriage that I shall have my own busines of Rice and China products.I know my Pakistani friends who have marriad there they says their wives are very pretty , caring and kindhearted.These friends have no complaint of their wives.But in pakistan we are facing much problems maaking marriage.My wife was dead due to birthing of baby in 2000.still I am single and nw I have decided that I shall setup my biz in Tehran and I shall marry to any woman there as per Islamic rules and regulation either on shia thought of school or Hanafi.
All people are not equal and all pople are not flirt.
thanx a lot to reading my words.
thanking You,
Very Truely Yours,
Muhammad Tariq.

if you love her and she loves you what is the problem.I doubt you are going to live in Iran after you get married. Take the moment, enjoy the life together. although I am Persian, one of the biggest regrets that I have is that I never married or met the right Persian girl. If she is the right one seize the moment.
Good luck

As a white American guy married to a Saudi woman I know the problems well. If you do not have “wasta” (connections) or “reschwa” (bribes) it is very hard to get permission to marry.
March 28, 2008 at 12:05 am
Salam Shahrzad. Che tori? Khobi?
Well very interesting to read posts on this blog. Let me add some more. While studying engineering in Sweden I made many Irani friends. Both girls and boys, from Tehran, Tabriz, Isfahan, Shiraz etc. I Learned Persian, as my language, Urdu, already derive its vocabulary from this language. As a boy I was naturally attracted towards girls. I found them to be true friends BUT not companions.
All of them were reluctant to show any affection to become a companion. The reason was the perception related to my countrymen. Iranis are liberal, non religious, non practicing, modern people, as far as I know through my contacts with them. For them religion is an entity forced on them by the mullahs and government. But they used to look at people from Pakistan as very religious, practicing and traditional people, though the story is different in reality as their is no pressure or orders from government or religious institutions. I myself practice religion but not deeply religious.
I found another interesting reason of this distraction. Iranis look at Arabs as the one who have destroyed their traditions and culture. True. My family name is among them. I think it also proved to be a bad point for me.
Language was another barrier, though I learned Persian due to reasons cited above, but still it was a hinderence in establishing a relationship. I knew their parents, met them in Sweden, met their siblings and everything was good untill this stage but nothing further.
I realised that Irani girls were not interested in money or stature or social standing rather, they were interested in making it with someone of their own. Someone from Iran. It is a good trait but it also shows the confinement in a circle. Even now when I have completed studies, settled on a very handsome earning job in Norway, living alone and quite away from any hassles, their is no interest from any of them.
Mixing cultures and traditions is good when they are not very different from each other but keeping yourself in a circle and nothing else is not the order of the day. It was in opposition to the liberalism and moderation but it was there and I experienced it.
But the Persian beauty was awesome. Much like as we have in northern areas of Pakistan. And girls from Shiraz were apt at poetry and literature too. I have heard about that but found it myself to be true.

Hey, i met this realy nice iranian girl while i was on holiday in iran and we kind of hit it of, so i decided to marry the girl and we agreed on that. the problem is when i got back to london most of my friends, including the iranian ones told me that iranian girls are kind of “and im just quoting here” whores who sleep around quite often yet act as if theyr virgins. i know this implies to most iranians in london but i thought it would be diffrent over there and whats worrying is it was kind of easy to get girls over there. i realy like this girl but now im realy cofused as even some iranians are telling me not to trust her especialy as she is still a univerity student. so to what extent is this true and what the hell should i do? anyone, Shahrzad. P.s havnt married yet, still want to, but having some serious second thoughts.
March 30, 2008 at 3:12 am
Forgot to mention im half iranian but dont have the slightest clue how things are, the culture or even the language, although i do now about the history and arts but thats not realy helpful.
April 17, 2008 at 8:57 pm
HI MANDANA !
I was going through lot of blogs but found yours quite sensible and matured. you r absolutely correct for love there is no boundries and if the couple is indeed in love they can overcome all the hurdles. i have read, lot of people were talking about marriage process in Iran but suppose if i rally love any Iranian girl all other things r secondry.
i think Iranian govt. has done a wonderful job by making the marriage pricess transparent for outsider.
i am from India that too from nortern part of the country. there are so many cases of cheating poor girls. they marry the girl quinch their lust and go away. Ii is well said that “one can easily jude how prosperous is a nation by seeing the plight of women of that country”. i think its very very true. where there is no respect for women there will be no prosperity.

hi ..i am an Indian and studying in Germany ..i met a Iranian girl and fell in love with her. I am a Hindu . i went through the all the posts and figure it out that it is not possible to marry a Iranian without change of religion. She now live in Iran . Will it be possible for her to change her religion? We want to marry , but i can’t change my religion , because of my parents pressure.Can anybody suggest, what should we do , in order to marry.

Salam Aziz Shahrazad,
I’m really so proud of ur nice & interesting website where everyone can express his love & passion to Iranian girls. Really Iranian girls like princesses even when they wear scarf & make good hijab as Leila descibed them.
I’m also one of the guys who loves Iranian girls madly. I’m originally from Pakistan but living in Gulf country. Iranian girls are really so kind, lovely, polite, respectful, beautiful, cute & so so so sweet. I have many lovely friends in different parts of Iran. I must say that really Iranian girls deserve all the love, passion, respect, kindness & loyalty.
Enshallah I’ll write u all later about my experiences & my stories with Iranian girls.
God bless Iran & great girls of Iran…

salam shahrzad,I have found my way back to your web page once more with a heavy heart in tow,I have been trying so hard to get my iranian sweetheart here(usa)non of the lawyers I see will give me any definate answers,everything seems like one big gamble,my love fateme and I do not have money to just give away and that’s exactly what this whole immigration lawyer situation seems like to me,there is no certainty that she will get the fiance visa and this is several thousand dollars a pop,I feel like defecting from this country somtimes,I’ve been thru a lot in my life but I must say that this is by far the most frustrating thing I’ve ever had to deal with,I hope I don’t have a heart attack from all the stress this is bringing me,forgive me for venting but I just don’t understand why they make the process so confusing and difficult,I have had other iranian nationals tell me that they were denied a visa because the person they were dealing with that day was in a bad mood,this is peoples lives they are having a profound effect on,there does not seem to be one ounce of fairness and organization in this whole process,I am getting really angry about all this,I just want to put my fist thru the wall,please if anyone out there is going thru somthing like this post a message and I will include you in my prayers and hope you would include me in yours,I think he is the only one that is going to bring us together,he will make plain sense out of all they’re confusing red tape and lies,again please forgive me shahrzad for my ranting but I have no one to talk to who cares and I know that you understand how heartbreaking somthing like this can be,god will bless
July 3, 2008 at 4:37 pm

A Persian girl marring an Indian? this is a first time ive heard about thing about this.
WTF? Can she be that foolish or desperate? How is her life going to improve? What good is your Indian passport going to do for her? Where are you two going to live? What will her family or most others think inside Iran? Im sure the Indians would be envious, but certainly not the other way around.
Whats her phone number. I’m sure i can 100% brings some sense to her.
How did you make her fall in love? Give her the hard premarital nookie in bed and make her squirm around with orgasmic delight which she has not felt?
Just because we call this love? People are capable of loving again or others if they open their heart or mind.
Am I offending anyone?
GOOD!
does it sound like I care? I’ll say it like it is.
Oh yea, one last thing. its a fact Islam is evil. Satans ultimate grip on human-kind. it all about suppression to control people and society. Look what going on.
Im marring my Iranian soulmate. She insist that i don’t convert. I wouldn’t anyway. i literally would rather die. we are both willing to die for each other.
July 26, 2008 at 3:27 pm
Im with you Tony. and I hear you. Id like to throw my citizenship down the trash also. but its not so simple we can just be free birds. Again… Politics and Control.

It makes me want to dedicate my life to make the world a better place and to help people. or to do something unthinkable big and shock people, just to make a statement or make a change. This is how i feel, but thinking with reason and rational, I guess we should just take it up the…

Hi …. I am in love with Iranian girl, and in our country there is no such stupid requirements from government that they need certificate of character to get married — what state has to do with the individual matter of two people?? Very stupid indeed.
I read your top post – do you seriously think that it was a solution – specially if that mischief was carried out by Iranian boys?? WAOW – what a solution.
Anyways, I have found that I will invite my girl over my country and we get marry there, and we can get our marriage registered with Iranian system.
BTW: I was in Iran sometime ago for this same reason to prepare for permission for marriage. And through using various local references in Foreign Ministry, the division that handles such cases, told me (in his honest tone) that I should be prepared for a year or more delay. To me, that was last straw on camel’s back. I decided there and then – stupid government, stupid laws. I am not going to wait for so much time

I’m Belgian and last september I met a wonderful Iranian girl in Turkey. We met at the hotel during summer holiday. We got very soon in touch with eachother, I really fell in love with her. So I decided to pay her a visit in november. Between september and November we had everyday contact by phone or messenger. She really gave me the feeling that we were serious. I arrived in tehran on nevember 4th and yes there she was, my Persian beauty. She was there with here mother. We had a wonderful time for the next 10 days. She had an appartement just for herself, so we could enjoy day and night. I had several conversations with her father about marriage, so we had a futher planned. The day I left she was heartbroken but we had made plans for our future. Next step she was going to visit me in Belgium. When I returned home and checked my emails late at night, I became crazy when she wrote that she was not going to continue the relationshap, without further comment.
I tried and tried to reach her and finally I could get in touch with her. I asked for an explanation. She told me that we would never be a match because I did not bring enough presents from my country for her and her family. She told me aswell that I didn’t buy her enough things once I was there. She told me Iranian boys are used to do those things, because of their culture. I was confused, and still are. Is this the way Iranian girl act ? Expecting us as foreigners to come to their country to please them with gifts and money ? Meanwhile I found out that she is not that honest as she seemed to be, and she’s not afraid to tell several lies?
Please some comment by Iranian girls about this issue.
Thank you
December 12, 2008 at 8:14 am
Koen, It’s funny, bcs there is not such a costum or tradition as bringing too many gifts etc. On the other hand, it’s not Iranian culture that a girl has sex freely with a guy without him being her husband. So you can’t trust such a girl. This girl maybe was just a liar and b***h.
December 12, 2008 at 12:33 pm
Dear Shahrzad,
thank you for your response, you just confirmed what I was afraid of. Nevertheless I still prefer an Irainian girlfriend/wife, because quote :”Their hot and shiny eyes, their soft skin and loyal behavior is well known. Marrying a persian girl is every man dream. They are beautiful like princess even under scarf…” end of quote.
I just need to find one that I can trust. Any suggestions, mail me monstro900@hotmail.com
Best regards,
Koen
December 12, 2008 at 12:57 pm
Koen, this quote is something that my Dad in law says always..
December 12, 2008 at 1:06 pm
Shahrzad,
that’s my I’m so attracted by them. To me they are the most enchanting women in the world…
December 12, 2008 at 7:10 pm
I am British, and I worked in Tehran. I wondered why the Iranian men looked old and tired (more than other cultures). Then I met the most amazing woman of my life… she is Iranian, and we are getting married. But getting married has created many many many problems, issues, difficulties and so on…..
now I know why Iranian men look so old and tired!
lol!
December 12, 2008 at 7:54 pm
Mike, I know what you mean about some wrong parts of culture.
My husband did not face much issue anyway. Maybe bcs we used to decide together first and then inform families for respect. About everything, from the plan of marriage to celebrations etc.. Most of the time they are families who make problems and issues.\
About Iranian men being old, that’s bcs nowadays Iranians have to work more than two shifts to pay for their life, esp in megacapital Tehran with very stupid high prices for a little house. Salaries are so law. Also there is not as much enterntainment as you get in other countries. People do not have time even to pay a visit to relatives.. Unfortunately.

If one Iranian girl marry a hindu guy & they register their marriage in India , can they visit Iran without any problem?I mean will Iranian goverment creat problem for them ?
January 1, 2009 at 2:49 pm
HI. thanks for ur information.
I am working in duabi, I am in shiraz for one project from last 6 to 7 month.
actullay i am in love with one Irani girl, i want to marry her. before i don’t know about these problems. now i have to think again to get marry her. may be we will be friends only forever.
One thing i agree is that irani girls are so so beautiful & friendly .
I think that is the reason why fell in love with that irani girl. i realy love her & her also love me.
but i dont know what will be the end of our love.
January 3, 2009 at 8:48 pm
well my story is bit different i met my irani girl on the net on 23rd dec 2003 initially we were just friends but later we knew its love i must say i came to know the true meaning of love frm her we still are in love i also noticed 1 thing in this article: both of them need to pass a long process and give some documents to prove their honesty. which i dont agree cos i feel love needs no proof to prove urself wht iam trying to say is tht love has no boundaries and as they say in love i will do anything for u, so guys if u love ur her for real y ru affraid of these process
January 15, 2009 at 6:48 am
Hello Shahrazad,
Im a big fan of your blog btw
My story is that ive fallen in love with an Iranian Women, and we are currently engaged. The procedure you mentioned for marriage seems very complex
Do you know if there is a quicker alternative? Is it possible to get married in a different country and have it registered quickly in Iran instead of getting married in Iran and going through this lenghty process?
Also my second question is slightly off-topic. Im lebanese, ive heard that some Iranians do not like Arabs. Its also my understanding that Some iranians dont consider Lebanese as Arabs. How much of this statement is true? will i encounter any criticism of being a Lebanese married to an Iranian when i visit Iran?
Sorry for the questions. Thanks alot!

Sam, mabrook.
This post explain for you that now many of these conditions are done just by girl’s request: http://shahrzaad.wordpress.com/2008/10/27/no-problem-to-marry-iranian-girl/
So there is not much issue now for marrying your fiance. Btw, Iranians and Arabs intract alot and they marry inside together so much. You should not be worried for that. Iranians love Arabs, esp those of Lebanon..

Hi Shahrzad
Thanks for ur useful website.
Im an indian (Hindu) who is married an iranian girl 1 year back now we want to register our marriage in Iranian consulate in India.We have already asked them the procedure they have told us to make some documents ready & send it to consulate by DHL post then they will send it to Iran to get approval from Iranian goverment & it will take 1-2 months time.I just want to know is it the only way or there are other alternatives also to make it fast & I also want to know ,wether goverment will approve it 100% or there are chances to get refused by them.

Very interesting info here! It’s a shame that a few crazy, greedy guys had to spoil it for the girls and guys who are genuinely interested in getting married.
February 1, 2009 at 10:34 pm
Hi Shahrzad, nice post. Sorry to be naive, but I wonder how you got to know what other people are searching for? I am lost about the “search engine terms” you mentioned.
Also, it’s nice to see countries opening up a bit allowing inter-nation marriages. I never saw that as a problem. What’s a bigger barrier is differences in religions than nations. I wish people could let that go too, because under the blanket of every religion, there are nice and beautiful people.

Hi Shahrzad,
I was born and raised in the U.S. to a secular Iranian muslim dad and American christian mom. I believe my mother was never forced to convert to Islam, as they married before the revolution. They never forced their religion on their kids but thought that we should decide for ourselves. I grew up very accepting of others’ beliefs, and while I do believe in god I suppose, I am not religious at all.
I’m dying to go to Iran for the first time and am currently in the process of securing my Iranian passport, but as I’m seriously dating my Korean-American (also non-religious) boyfriend, I imagine a time when we may want to go together. I know he will have to get a visa, and it seems like it’d be difficult for us to travel around together as ‘friends’.
If we get married here in the U.S. and want to be recognized as a married couple in Iran, would he have to convert to Islam? Do I HAVE to say I’m muslim? What are the implications of saying I’m Christian? Or Non-religious? This is a big fear of mine for some reason, I feel like any answer could bring complications that I don’t understand. Btw, I have a typically muslim family name. Thank you for your advice.
February 3, 2009 at 9:31 pm
prairiedust, You can easily travel to Iran alone once you get your iranian passport. Nobody asks you about your religion or everything. Your religion is issued based on your father’s. Based on Iranian law, you’re considered as born muslim, even if your father was not practising but he is born muslim too.
Traveling with your boy friend to muslim countries (Except Lebanon) is somehow difficult. Maybe they allow you if you use your american passport to travel. You need to ask directly from that country’s council.
After marriage, If your husband doesn’t convert to Islam, you both need to use your american passport (mean via American nationality) to travel to Iran and there is no problem that way, just the process of taking visa for both of you.
February 3, 2009 at 9:34 pm
Ravi, In some countries like Turkey this process takes one week or so. But since you’re doing this via India, the only way for you is to patiently wait until end of the process. If they didnt say anything while taking the documents, so it will be 100% approved. No worry.
February 3, 2009 at 9:36 pm
Thank you Unique and Jack for your comments
February 4, 2009 at 12:21 am
Hi Shahrzad,
Thanks for your reply. I have talked to the Iranian consulate and was told many times that b/c my dad is an Iranian citizen, so am I, and I cannot go to Iran on a visa. That’s why I’m getting a passport.
I’m planning on going to Iran with my siblings, seeing some family, and traveling around. I’ve been told that it wouldn’t be that big of a deal to have my boyfriend come to Iran, if he is invited by my Iranian family in order to get a visa more easily. But I’m wondering how easily we could walk around the streets together, go sightseeing together or in a group with my family, travel in a car together? I know we would have to stay in separate hotel rooms if we go to other towns. I’ve been told that lots of people do this, but what do you think?
If we do someday get married, I guess we would just continue with the same arrangements (him getting invited by family, staying separately if we travel, etc.), unless we have kids, at which point I guess he’ll have to convert in order for my children to be legally recognized? Even though they are not eligible to be Iranian citizens?
February 4, 2009 at 12:35 am
prairiedust , Welcome. There is actually no problem for you walking in the streets, traveling around Iran with your boyfriend. Once you get to come to iran, you will see many Iranians with their boyfriends and girlfriends walking around.
If your family invite him, you easily can come to Iran together.
As you said, if you want to stay in hotel somewhere, you can not stay in the same room with your boyfriend.
And yes, for your kids, he has to convert.
Btw You can check these pages of Iranian ministry of foreign affairs:
Related to Iranian nationality (unfortunately this page is just in farsi):

I am sure you will enjoy Iran and your Iranian family alot.

I would love to marry Iranian girl but wont wait or will want to be ready for that paper process like Interpol & what so ever!
February 11, 2009 at 10:49 pm
Dear Shahrzad,
I have a couple of questions. I am about to marry this Iranian girl in the U.S who is asking me for Mehrey. Now just in case couple years down the road we get divorced, according to the U.S laws she is entitled 50% of my belonging and vice versa,right? Then what happens to Mehrey? do I still need to pay her the huge money she and her family are asking me to pay?
Thanks if you could be kind posting some answers in this regard I’d really appreciate it.
Thank You,
Babak
February 13, 2009 at 5:29 pm
Dear Shahrzad,
Thanks for the info. Am in love with the sweetest girl on earth ,who happens to be from iran.
Am a hindu , indian and we are planning to get married by next year god willing, but in another country.
Once again, thanks for the info
February 13, 2009 at 7:17 pm
Babak, sure she can not make problem for you in the US. But if she put her mahr on implementation in Iran and if you dont pay, you’ll be arrested entering the Iranian airport. Just be careful for that.
Hari, i wish you and your fiance a very happy and fruitful marriage ever after.
February 20, 2009 at 6:39 pm
Surely before I could marry an Iranian girl I’ve got to know her before…
I like Iranian girls… There’s something misterious in her beauty, in the way they look…
By the way, here in Italy we’ve local laws and burocracy that make to marry a foreign girl/man more difficult than ordinary…
But… When people are in love, what’s the problem you cannot solve?

March 10, 2009 at 8:34 pm
hi shahrzad,
hope you are doing fine.
You need not reply my mail now.
The whole experience left a broken heart to me
Thank GOD for everything…………..
March 17, 2009 at 11:45 am
Salam aleikum, Shahrzad! I found this page a few minutes ago, and I found your post very interesting. And it gave me a headache because I want to marry an Iranian girl and I didn’t know about all this difficulty until just now when I read that. XD
I’m an American guy and I have a girlfriend who lives in Iran. We really love each other and we want to be together and marry, but I don’t have much money right now and I can’t go to Iran just yet. So we have to wait a little while until I can save up some money. I also haven’t converted to Islam yet, but I know I will have to do that before we can marry. But, when we DO marry… If we marry in Turkey or somewhere, will the marriage be recognized in Iran? How would we go about getting the Iranian government to recognize it? While we’re living in Iran, would a marriage that took place in Turkey provide the same benefits for us that a marriage that took place in Iran would? Would it no longer be difficult for me to enter/leave Iran whenever I want, because i’d be married to an Iranian citizen, even if the marriage took place elsewhere? Would I get all the rights that Iranian citizens have (including the right to vote, etc), and in exchange would I have to renounce my American citizenship?
Please answer these questions, as I really badly need to know these things.
March 25, 2009 at 8:54 am
Shahrzad, nice thread!! Looking at the history of all your follow ups from the beginning of your post I have to compliment you on your improvement in your english skills. You write much better now and your better command of the english language is very evident.

I have a quick question for you…btw…beautiful site and lovely blog
My question is…if you dont mind me asking…how did you and your husband meet? and how did you finally break it to your family that you two are going to get married and finally, are you happy? Im a very open minded iranian but I dont understand why inter-nation marriages by other iranians are looked down upon…at times considered Taboo…if you could explain this it will help me a great dea
March 25, 2009 at 9:13 pm
Venus,
Salam
Thank you for your compliment.
I do understand why it is a taboo for some Iranians (actually mainstream). Mostly bcs Iranians are not in connection with the rest of world in person. There is visa restrictions for Iranians and also there is a kind of stereotypical propaganda by Iranian authority enforcing minds that Iranians are the best nation, they are superior to others, They are so and so, though maybe right or wrong ideas. But actually in nowadays world, people are too much mixed with each others and they live and interact internationally. While it does not happen for an isolated planet Iran under sanctions with restricted information resources for its people.
Anyway, my husband and i met in Tehran and i didn’t have any problem for marrying him, since nationality was not a big deal for my family and his family. They f 1765
_rted us and i am very happy with him. He is truly my soulmate..
April 20, 2009 at 2:50 am
Salam,
I am an American woman hopelessly and painfully in love with a Persian man who is in Iran. They supposedly denied my visa after flagging me for investigation and then making me give them my resume. I am an isolated woman who converted to Islam about 2 years ago because of this man and Allah sent him to me. I can walk after 10 years of immobility because of this man. He can’t leave the country because he lived in UK 8 years and returned.
They won’t let me in and I can’t forget him or stop loving him. I don’t understand why they are doing this. I sold all my possessions in an awful economy that I worked my life for and put my houses on auction. I am losing most everything and now I can’t even marry him? I don’t know what to do.
May 23, 2009 at 2:19 am
Hei everyone!
I am from Norway. I am planning to visit Iran for the first time in my life and stay there for 2 or 3 months. My aim is to find a girl there for marriage. Could anyone tell me, what is the most effective way to search for her ? Night-clubs, ads in newspapers, or just travelling across the countryland? Would it be considered normal for an european to visit small towns or villages and go around asking lokal people if they know any unmarried girls ? I know my question must sound stupid, but that’s just a proof of my poor knowlegde of life in Iran.
????????
Amazing blog though, right to the point of issue, thanks Shahrzad!!
May 25, 2009 at 11:44 pm
hi
Helen’s story is painful. Pray for her love to be fulfilled.
Jilius, why you are that much interested in Iranian Girls? It sounds like you are ready to do any thing(of course positively) to make your dreams come true. Good luck.
This blog is a relief to me, visiting here is something like.. yea I really feel good. Thanks Shahrzad

Interesting post, Shahrzaad. I think marring forigen girls became a trend in many societies and cultures due to the short-vision and narrow-minded mentalities that looks for the forigen girls/woman as source of happiness and to get wealthy.
Of course, there are some exceptions because I don’t fall into the trap of generalising however I think it’s important that Men marry from Women of their societies as there are much common stuff among them rather than forigners.
p.s. Look what I’ve done? It’s my 1st visit and I’m commenting on an old post
June 11, 2009 at 12:38 pm
@Helen.. i know how you feel.. being isolated from converting to Islam in usa.. im same ok listen.. why cant you consider living outside either one of your countries like turkey or malaysia or really anywhere you sound desperate for a solution and really sometimes leaving it all behind and moving toanother country is not so hard to do when you are wanting to be together.. i have not seen my husband in years and lately we are trying another solution to be together.. i wish you much peace and luck.. fe amin ALLAH

Hi Shahrzad, Chitore, Khobom are some of the few words I know in farsi
I am happy to find your blog via one of the RT in twitter and the followed you over twitter. Your blog is awesome and you have an amazing spirit and very interesting posts. I like this post regarding marrying and Iranian girl. I wonder if it is okay for an Iranian girl to marry a Suni Muslim?

June 17, 2009 at 8:20 pm
I’m an Indian Hindu male and was going steady for some time with an Iranian girl. She was very sweet and even though I did not knew much about Iranian culture, I found many amazing similarities between both of us. However, our relationship didn’t quite work out because of following reasons:
1. Language differences -Clearly, there are many common words between Hindi/Urdu and Persian, but an inability to communicate well is a major stumbling block
2. Religious differences – I’m a staunch Brahmin Hindu and she was a devout Muslim. Both religious systems are very conflicting. I don’t think it’s fair even one person give up on their religion by adjusting.
3. Visa hassles – Now, don’t even get me started on that. Unless, both of you happen to live in another country, it’s an impossible arrangement.
Indeed, intercultural/international relationships are very difficult and not for everyone. I’m about to marry a girl from my caste and region. But, I’ll forever remember this Iranian girl. She was absolutely amazing and noone could possibly replace her.
June 23, 2009 at 4:52 pm
hello shahrzad..sanaz here..i really need ur help with my marriage with an american guy..is that possible to get married in turkey and then will he be able to live in iran for couple of months till i finish my study and i will get the visa for USA?
thanks a million
June 27, 2009 at 3:35 pm
This is common in many countries. Although I understand the reasons for such laws, but I am not comfortable with it. You never know when you find the right partner and where. This can be a headache then!
July 1, 2009 at 3:22 pm
So if i’m christian, i cant marrye with iranian girl?
I’m christian, but i must say that most westwrn girls are ….

I would prefer Iranian girl as my Life Partner since they are beautiful also culture of Persia
July 19, 2009 at 11:21 pm
I’m a Hindu by birth and an atheist by belief. I am in love with an Iranian girl. Been working on my Farsi for last 6 months. Finally visited her and her family this month(July 09). Met her family and friends and they all accepted me.
Just wanted to find out about the country where we should get married – India, US Turkey or Iran. Also will she retain Iranian citizenship after getting married. We would like to go back at least twice every year – it is such a beautiful country
)
Any other comments/suggestions?
July 19, 2009 at 11:29 pm
Manu, You can definitely marry easier in Turkey, due to easy civil law. For more information, you can contact both Turkey embassy and Iranian embassy in whatever country you are.
The iranian girl will NOT lose Iranian citizenship after marriage /getting citizenship of foreign husband. As i didnt lose.
July 19, 2009 at 11:42 pm
Irum,
He can’t leave Iran. I have to move there or forget him. However, the only other place I would want to move is Saudi anyway. I live in USA. I do not like it. Most people here are clueless as to what is going on. They research nothing and believe what they hear. They let a President in that has a Grandfather who financed Hitler. The people here do not see the war as what it is..a way for this President and the rest of the elite 5% that own 95% of USA wealth to get more power and money. They also have interest in pharmaceuticals..hence the anthrax scare and the phasing out of certain drugs in the Spanish countries and replacement of them with drugs that are worse but again profitable to them.
USA controls the world economy. Only a few countries escape their control and USA tries to strangle them for it. Iran is one. Yay Iran. I was born in USA but I know right from wrong.

Salaam to all,
Thank you for all this “Shahrzaad”. Hope all of you are doing fine. Well I am Muslim and living in Uk, recently i fell in love with a girl from iran(Tabriz). She lives in tabriz and studying. I want to know few things
1- How are irani girls In general?
2- Specially from Tabriz? are they loyal?
3- How can i get married to her and what is the easiest way? I have been to iran many times and somehow know their culture. But still it would be great of you could help me out. do i need to have a lawyer here or do i need to travel to iran to marry or what??
4- Can she adjust with my culture (Asian) ? and be able to live in Uk?
5- Do they like to live in Joint family or live seprately? any one from iran please pass your views?
6- What kind o job do they prefer?
7- Do they really have islamic values? as tabriz is more close to Turkey and azerbijan.. as i have been to turkey and azerbijan.. Most people are muslim by name only… so that was reason of my question?
8- I have seen her once and since than we are talking over the phone, emails, chat etcc…. I want to meet her again.. she says that in iran laws are very strict.. she can not meet me or she wil be in trouble if anyone sees… than I asked her to visit me in uk, which she says that she can not travel alone, because in iran girls can not travel abroad? can anyone suggest me anything, how can i meet her?? can i meet her in Tabriz? or tehran? or anywhere in the world where she can come alone? ( she also wants to meet me)
9- I am 25 years old and she is 24, does this matters for irani girls.. i mean age difference is less?
10- can anyone suggest me so that i can convince her to come to Uk (Or else where) and live with me? as she is very worried , she wants me to live in iran? please suggest me anything which i can convince her?

August 8, 2009 at 5:21 pm
Hi shahzaad
Perhaps u dont remind me.before six months i wrote u about the problem to marry with an iranian widow.
As u guided me the link about new iranian law in which if girl can give in written then no need for documents.
But First of all i should thank to you ,that link gave me the hope to visit again to iran ,and alhumdulah her parent agreed n sheikh performed our nikah illegally n then we proceeded for the registration at ministry of external affairs n also my wife gave them in written that no need of ne document .
After three months ministry of external affair ,refused that there is any new law in which on girls request no need of document …..i am still confused …plz clarify that how i can prove that there is ne law in which on girls request no need of hectic documentation.
Further more ,i go through hectic process for preparing such documents like non criminal record ,unmaried proof ..income certificate and faced interview …….Now the problem is that .they take me in written and also frm my wife i never claim for iranian nationality n always i ve to come on tourist visa .
second they want the property document from me .
third they are asking all document shld be attested by iran embasy in india as i am indian national and my income document frm uae iran embasy cos i am working in uae.
i am still working on it ,but i always think if there is existence of such law in which no need of document then why shld i do ….if u say me i wan to follow that too but not remain dependent on that law completely
Second ,is it any law that if foriegn shld marry with irani girl he will not get nationality …atleast i shld get long term visa …i exactly dont know neither my wife knows..all hope is upon u …plz give me some detailed and usefull answer ,when u ve enough spare time .cos ur one single line turns too good for me ..may be ur detailed summary removes all hurdles..
always ur sincere

Hi Shahrzad,
Its really interesting to talk about marry a Iranian girl.
I’m Iranian girl I have a Brazilian boyfriend. We are thinking to get marry. But we give time to ourselves to know eachother more. We had some discussion about the Iranian cultures but he read something in the web and news which is not really thru. He sent me this link (http://shahrzaad.wordpress.com/2007/10/06/problems-to-marry-iranian-girl/ ) and asks me to give him my commentaries about this text.
But I’m really not able to open his eyes that Iranian peoples and cultures are not really as he read in some news and stories.
August 18, 2009 at 7:44 pm
If you are an Iranian girl and are a Muslim, you are not allowed to marry a non-Muslim unless he converts. You do not mention the religion of your boyfriend. As for Iranian culture. It is DIFFERENT not wrong and IRAN is one of the LAST places on this planet where marriage and family work.
The Media is censoring everything about Iran to break them. They are one of the last countries the USA does not control. I feel USA will try to start a war to do what they did in the other Mid Eastern countries. I do not like people who play God personally.
I have an Iranian fiance but we are married in eyes of Allah. We are practicing to our religion and waiting each other til we have formal paper work. I converted to Islam in 2007 and there is no way for a Muslim to marry a non Muslim who does not expect to convert.
Now that I am a Muslim, I would never marry a non Muslim. There are too many things that would break the bond. Covering is a big one. Women who are Muslim by Quran must cover feet, ankles, legs, arms, top, and hair. THEY MUST. They have to obey their husbands too.
Obviously if husband say go run in front of train ..you got to question, but this is a scenario that don’t usually happen…my fiance is very kind and smart. He is level headed. When my being a women makes me crazy, he has saved me more then enough times so I completely trust that if he tells me ..no absolutely no..I need to listen to him.
The man is naturally stronger then the woman and meant to protect her. I do not see this as bondage, oppression or whatever other derogatory term men haters use. I see it as my Alka Seltzer..oh what a relief not to have to deal with stuff I wasn’t meant to deal with, and I am American born.
Not proud that I am but proud I was given an opportunity to see outside of a very tight box of government/elitist control..Enshallah!!
September 8, 2009 at 9:59 am
Hi Shahrzad,
I really like your blog. Thanks for sharing
I have TOTALLY fallen for this Iranian girl that comes to my gym. How I feel about her is ineffable and something like this has never happened to me before!
I am an Indian and she also lives here. All I know about her is that she is an Iranian. I have been thinking of piling enough iron to go and talk to her. She doesn’t talk to anyone at the gym where she comes for yoga classes. So, I don’t even know how to approach her.
I just can’t stop noticing and thinking about her. I have come across many girls but I have never felt this way. It is very overwhelming to be totally in for someone I haven’t even talked to, but I can’t control
I mean her first sight kind of melted me!
October 4, 2009 at 4:05 am
iranian women must marry iranian man because non iranians are f***ing a******s.!! irani ba irani bayad bashad.
f*** american! f*** arabs! f*** europeanns!!
October 21, 2009 at 5:38 am
The Iranian woman is wonderful, they have a great tradition and they are faithful. In the USA, people is different. This country have a freedom in the religion and the laws are careful with this one, so the traditions are forgotten by some people. I would like to know a iranian woman, but no inside of the USA. Lol
November 5, 2009 at 12:57 am
Be Aware! NEVER marry Iranian girls! In general, Iranian people are very racist against other people and cultures especially Arabs. In fact, they are the most racist people against Arabs. However, they’re not very racist against Westerners such as the Americans and Europeans even if they are non muslims!
They claim to be Muslims but they are very nationalistic. They don’t know that Islam has no nationality or geography.
November 28, 2009 at 9:05 pm
Iranians:
Ok, first A lot of Iranians are Arabs, so the comment about them being prejudiced is a lie or ignorance due to a run in with one or two people. People who are thinking clearly do not judge an entire race by a couple people.
Second, a lot of Iranians are Persians and all Iranians I have met are sweet and good. Third, they are not permitted to be boyfriend girlfriend and have sex and can get into serious trouble for this because it is AGAINST BEING MUSLIM.
In Quran it clearly states that we are not to fornicate. Sex before marriage is NOT ALLOWED. Fourth, being modest, a true Muslim will not air their problems and NEVER EVER discuss sex on an open public board–SHAME ON YOU that have. Read your Quran. I am not born a Muslim and am SHOCKED that I seem to know more about Quran than MANY people who had the priviledge to be born Muslim. This is because THEY DO NOT KNOW WHAT IS IN QURAN–THEY DO NOT STUDY IT, and even in Quran it says Quran is a grace and a mercy, put there to read for this purpose.
Also, the person writing about how they are kind to Americans and not Arabs …umm I am American by birth and I got to get followed around over there when I visit because I am American and USA likes to send spies and aggravate Iran, so they are not too kind by necessity.
Maybe you read about the 3 Americans (OMG that one need to be in jail just because his rap video was so bad), that crossed the Iranian border by “accident” , all around the age of the usual CIA agents etc. and ppl think its bad they are in jail. What do you think we would do to an Iranian if they “accidentally” crossed the US border? Try they would have been gone 2-3 years, tied up, getting defecation on them in Guantanamo. I am a realistic person and I tell it like I see it.
