<p>There are currently 7 UK diplomatic staff based at the British Embassy in Tehran, including the new Charge d'affaires who arrived at Post on 31 December 2015. This is a significant increase from the 2 UK diplomatic staff that were based in Tehran before the formal reopening last year. We anticipate further additions to the number of Embassy staff in due course.</p>
