Being in possession of double Identification details

Some Dutch Resident Iranians, may sometimes without abiding by the laws and regulations of the Islamic Republic of Iran, completely or partially alter their names and/or surnames when presented to officials of the country in which they reside and upon obtaining Identification, Residency and other kinds of documents from the country of residence, in order to enjoy certain Residential facilities and amenities. As a result the personal details on the foreign ID documents will naturally differ from those of the same individual’s Iranian ID documents. Since this situation can raise a number of legal complications and problems at the time being and also in the future while interacting with different authorities internationally, we would recommend that you consider modifying and amending your local Identification documents so as to have them correspond to your Iranian Birth Certificate.
