I crossed into Iran from Armenia at the Noordoz border crossing on the 20/7/2019 on a BMWF800GSA.
The border crossing was quite easy on both the Armenian and Iran side, although, needed local truck drivers help to direct me through the process.
Arrived on Saturday 8am and all complete around 10am. No questions were asked, no searches and the only delay was the wait for the Carnet to be processed. (It appeared the desk is only manned starting from 9-9:30am and not open Thursday and Friday).
They said there was a requirement to change to Iranian plates. I was directed to the Jolfa Traffic Police Office just outside Jolfa on the road to Tabriz. They were out of plates so advised to pick up plates in Tabriz.
However, when I went to the Police office in Tabriz I was told plates were not required if only in the country for 10days.
You need insurance, which was 990,000Rial for a month.
I have been stopped by police multiple times and no issue, just wanted to look at the bike and have a chat.
