Property and Real Estate Disputes for Iranians Abroad
Owning property in Iran while living abroad often creates unexpected legal complications. Issues such as tenants refusing to vacate, incomplete transfers, or fraudulent deeds require court intervention in Iran.
Many Iranians abroad face challenges in following up these cases from a distance. Institutions like Rezvan International, with their dual presence abroad and network of professional lawyers in Iran, make it possible for overseas clients to safeguard their property rights without unnecessary travel or uncertainty.
Legal Framework of Property Disputes in Iran
Real estate cases in Iran are regulated by the Civil Code (Qanun-e Madani "قانون مدنی") and the Real Estate Registration Law (Qanun-e Sabt "قانون ثبت"). Courts have exclusive authority to resolve disputes related to eviction, ownership, or forged transactions.
For Iranians abroad, navigating these legal texts and procedures is difficult without professional guidance. Rezvan International provides legal consultation in plain language, ensuring that clients understand the process before their case even begins in court.
Common Types of Property Disputes
1. Eviction of Tenants (Talab-e Tahliyeh "طلب تخلیه")
Landlords abroad often face tenants who refuse to vacate after their rental agreement ends. Filing an eviction lawsuit requires not only a local attorney but also constant follow-up. Rezvan International helps coordinate this process by managing communication between the client and their appointed lawyer in Iran.
2. Title Transfer Disputes (Naqle Malekiyat "نقل مالکیت")
When a property has been sold but the official deed was never transferred, disputes arise. Courts can compel registration at the Real Estate Registration Office (Edare Sabt "اداره ثبت"). Rezvan International supports clients by preparing the necessary documents abroad and ensuring their acceptance in Iran.
3. Forged or Invalid Transactions
Fraudulent transactions are a serious risk when the owner lives abroad. Victims must sue for title annulment (Ibtilal-e Sanad "ابطال سند"). Rezvan International’s verification and monitoring services reduce the chance of forgery and protect clients before litigation becomes necessary.
4. Inheritance-Related Property Conflicts
When one heir in Iran attempts to control shared property, partition lawsuits become unavoidable. Rezvan International provides mediation between heirs abroad and lawyers in Iran, minimizing conflict while ensuring a fair legal outcome.
Role of Iranian Courts
-
Power of Attorney (Vekalat-Nameh "وکالتنامه") – Drafted and notarized at the Iranian consulate abroad, often coordinated by Rezvan International for accuracy.

Filing the Petition (Dadkhast "دادخواست") – Submitted in Iran by a lawyer from Rezvan International’s partner network.

Court Proceedings – Clients are regularly updated through Rezvan International’s communication channels.
-
Enforcement of Judgment (Ejra-ye Ahkam "اجرای احکام") – Property handover, eviction, or title correction is completed under court supervision, with Rezvan International ensuring execution is carried out properly.
