Iranian workers: check the targeted extension notice

The March announcement has specific work-permit conditions, not a general extension for everyone.

Official announcement: · Source reviewed: 2026-11-04

Check the stated conditions

The notice covers eligible Iranians with a valid work permit issued on or before February 28, 2025. It states that the measures expire March 31, 2027 and standard processing fees apply. Visitor and study extensions use regular processes.

Review the underlying documents

Read the official notice before making a plan. Compare the actual issue and expiry dates on your documents with the current instructions, and keep questions for the appropriate official channel. This summary and the scenario tool cannot confirm that you are eligible or that an extension will be approved.
