Iran automatically extends construction engineering work permits to 22 September 2026

Iran's Construction Engineering Organisation said on Saturday, 1 August 2026 (10 Mordad 1405), that the validity of all work permits held by individuals and companies under article 4 of the Engineering and Construction Control Law has been automatically extended to 22 September 2026 (31 Shahrivar 1405).

According to the announcement, the extension follows a cabinet decision and coordination with the housing and building deputy of the Ministry of Roads and Urban Development. It requires no in person application and makes no change to the terms of the permits. Holders will also not be required to provide the certificate specified in article 186 of the Direct Taxation Law in order to renew these permits.

The organisation said the aim is to make engineering services easier to deliver, reduce administrative visits and allow engineers and eligible firms to continue working without interruption. A work permit is the legal condition for designing, supervising and executing construction, and a gap in renewals can slow the issuance of building permits and the progress of construction projects.
