Why get an Iran (+98) number

In the Gulf and wider Middle East, business is relationship-driven: a local number you actually answer builds trust faster than any email address.

An Iran number makes you look local in Tehran and across the country, while you answer from your laptop, your mobile or a call-center dialer anywhere in the world.

Because it's a real number on the Iran telephone network, it works for normal calls and text messages — including one-time passcodes and verification SMS from apps and websites.

What's included with every Iran number

Unlimited incoming SMS on your +98 number
500 outgoing SMS each month
1,000 outgoing minutes each month
Unlimited incoming calls
SIP login for softphones, PBX and dialers
Forwarding to any phone worldwide
Web dialer in your dashboard
Yours for as long as you keep renewing

Works with WhatsApp, Facebook, Google, Telegram and more

Signing up to WhatsApp, Telegram or Google with a +98 number takes a minute: enter the number in the app, then read the code in your Smart Messaging dashboard as soon as it lands.

People use Iran numbers to run a separate business profile, keep a personal SIM private, or appear local to Iranian contacts. If any app ever refuses the number in the first 7 days, you get a free replacement — that's our 7-day replacement guarantee.

Looking for an Iran virtual number?

Most people searching for an Iran virtual number want a +98 number they can use online, without a SIM card or a trip to Iran. Smart Messaging gives you exactly that — but on a real number from the Iran numbering plan, not an app-only line or a shared list.

You use it in your dashboard, in any SIP app or forwarded to your own phone, and it receives standard SMS and voice calls — which is why WhatsApp, Telegram, Google and Facebook verification codes arrive like on any mobile line. Read more: virtual number vs real mobile number.
