Road signs in Iran are regulated in the INSO 14815-1 standard. ^[1] They generally follow the Vienna Convention on Road Signs and Signals.

Road signs are divided in three categories:

• Regulatory signs;
• Warning signs;
• Information signs.

Iran signed the Vienna Convention on Road Signs and Signals on November 8, 1968 and ratified it on May 21, 1976. ^[2]
