The Tehran Times said that the move has been taken for “more security of the market.”
Quoting head of the Islamic Republic of Iran Customs Administration Masoud Karbasian, the paper added that car importers only paid a 130-per cent tariff and other duties including the cost of number plates and price difference of imported cars are not considered.
