Iran: British Nationals Abroad
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, if his Department will take steps to allow British nationals to register their presence in Iran.
Answered by Mr Hamish Falconer
We continue to advise against all travel to Iran and have long made it clear that UK Government support is extremely limited in country. British nationals already in Iran, either resident or visitor, should carefully consider their presence there and the risks they take by staying, with land borders potentially closing at short notice. Due to the current security situation, we have taken the precautionary measure to temporarily withdraw our UK staff from Iran. Our Embassy will continue to operate remotely.
