Iranian sources rule out rumors of a ban on exports from UAE to Iran. Supposedly, these were caused by US pressure.
"There is no prohibition, restriction or commodity separation between Iran and the UAE. Export and import are in progress according to previous procedures," the Director General of the Port Division of Ports and Maritime Organization of Iran, Ravanbakhsh Behzadian, was quoted as saying.
"The rumors have not been confirmed on the official Iranian customs website, and the officials of the Islamic Republic of Iran's Customs Administration did not confirm them. It's possible that someone has issued this news and maybe it was about a specific problem […] that led to a ban of cargo from the Emirates to Iran," said Behzadian.
"Currently there is no problem or ban on import of cargoes from Emirates ports to Iran, while Iran export to the UAE continues without limitations," he said.
