Pooriya Heshmati Pour on Mar 25, 2024:
In fact, if you add a 0 in front of these numbers, it will be similar to the real cost of living in Iran
Naser on Aug 15, 2023:
Usd is not 42000 IRR
It's decorative price not available for nobody nowhere for a long time
U can use the matket price of 500000 IRR for every usd$ instead
Alireza Ghahri on Oct 04, 2022:
Hi team
please be aware that the formal rate for IRR to USD is 1USD=42000IRR
but it is not available anywhere and the informal rate is about 1USD=330000IRR
please use this rate for costs of living in Iran.

I'm leaving in Karaj and going to Tehran often, so I can update all cost for Karaj and Tehran.

Thanks.
