TEHRAN – Kyrgyzstan will simplify bureaucracy for Iranian visitors and business travelers in a bid to deepen bilateral ties, its foreign minister said on April 19.

The scheme is aimed at preparing favorable conditions for Iranian investors and tourists, ILNA quoted Erlan Abdyldaev as saying. He made the remarks during a joint press conference with his Iranian counterpart Mohammad Javad Zarif in Bishkek.

Iran issues month-long visas on arrival for Kyrgyz visitors that can be extended up to 90 days.
