Dutch embassy in Tehran closes to public over security concerns

Jun 15, 2025, 09:50 GMT+1

The Dutch embassy in Tehran has temporarily closed its doors to the public due to escalating security risks following Israeli airstrikes on Iran, the Netherlands Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced on Saturday.

Embassy staff will remain on duty to monitor developments and safeguard Dutch interests, a statement said.

The ministry has activated crisis response teams and continues to advise Dutch citizens against travel to both Iran and Israel.

The travel advisory for Iran has been in effect since October 2022, while Israel was added to the red alert list last Friday.
