Chinese Ambassador to Iran

The Chinese Embassy in Tehran is a diplomatic mission located within a secure compound in the Aghdasiyeh neighborhood that manages bilateral relations and official affairs between the two countries. The facility provides consular services, visa processing, and administrative functions for citizens and diplomatic staff.

China and Iran established formal diplomatic relations in 1937 with the appointment of the first Chinese ambassador to the country. This initial connection laid the foundation for decades of official engagement between the two governments.

The Chinese Embassy coordinates educational programs, art exhibitions, and scientific exchanges between institutions from both countries to strengthen bilateral understanding.

The compound is not open to the public as it is a secured government facility with restricted access and security protocols in place. Citizens needing consular support can inquire online or by phone to arrange appointments and obtain information about services.

The position of Chinese Ambassador to Iran remained temporarily vacant in early 2023 until Xie Feng assumed the role in May of that year.
