The UK Government has warned British-Iranian dual citizens against travelling to Iran.
The Foreign Office says all British nationals should consider carefully the risks of travelling to the country, adding it now advises British-Iranian dual nationals against all travel.
The FCO said: "There is a risk that British nationals, and a higher risk that British/Iranian dual nationals, could be arbitrarily detained in Iran.
"All British nationals should consider carefully the risks of travelling to Iran. The Iranian authorities don’t recognise dual nationality for Iranian citizens and therefore don’t grant consular access for FCO officials to visit them in detention.
"If you’re a British-Iranian dual national and are subsequently detained in Iran, the FCO’s ability to provide consular support is extremely limited."
