According to a letter published by the Ministry of Tourism of Tunisia, the African country decided to cancel the 15-day visa requirements to Tunisia for Iranian tourists with ordinary passports.
The ministry added in the letter that this decision was made in response to measures adopted earlier by Iran and that it would be implemented from Saturday, June 15, 2024.
