The U.S. Virtual Embassy in Iran is insisting that Americans leave the Middle Eastern country amid conflicts in the region after a partial reopening of its airspace.
This comes after a ceasefire agreement between Iran and Israel to end the nearly two-week conflict.
“As of June 26, 2025, Iran’s airspace has been partially reopened, although business trips from Tehran and other major centers may be interrupted,” the embassy said in an advisory. “US citizens should follow local media and consult with commercial airlines to get more information about flights departing from Iran.”
American citizens who wish to leave Iran must travel by land to Azerbaijan, Armenia, Turkey or Turkmenistan if the conditions are safe, the embassy said.
The U.S. State Department created a crisis information acceptance form for American citizens in Iran to provide information on consular assistance, the embassy noted. But because of the limitations of consular support in Iran, the embassy said it does not anticipate that withdrawal from Iran will be provided with direct assistance from the U.S. government.
U.S. citizens who plan to leave Iran must use the available facilities to leave the country, it said.
