The Embassy stated that Indians should refrain from travelling to Iran by any mode and advised those already in Iran to leave.

Amid the ongoing war in West Asia, the Indian Embassy in Iran has issued a fresh advisory urging Indian citizens to avoid travelling to the country amid ongoing regional tensions and uncertainties affecting flight operations.

In a post on X, the Embassy stated that Indians should refrain from travelling to Iran by any mode and advised those already in the country to leave in coordination with the mission.

“In view of reports of commencement of some flights between India and Iran, and in continuation of earlier advisories, Indian citizens are strongly advised not to travel to Iran, whether by air or land. Airspace restrictions and operational uncertainties due to regional tensions continue to affect international flight operations to and from Iran," the Embassy said.

“It is further reiterated that all Indian nationals currently in Iran should leave the country through designated land border routes, strictly in coordination with the Embassy," the statement added.

Earlier in a similar advisory on April 8, the Embassy urged the Indian nationals to expeditiously leave Iran in view of evolving regional developments.

The embassy also said that the exit must be coordinated with the Embassy.

“In continuation of the advisory of 07 April 2026, and in light of recent developments, Indian nationals still in Iran are strongly advised to expeditiously exit Iran, in coordination with the Embassy and using the routes suggested by the Embassy," the embassy’s advisory read.
