Why this verdict

Filipino citizens are encoded from Iran MFA eVisa's current excluded-citizenship, application and visa-eligibility wording for ordinary short visitor travel. This destination-wave matrix record is intentionally conservative: ordinary passport, short tourism/visitor travel only. Work, residence, study, family, transit, press, diplomatic/service passports, dual nationality, prior travel history, Israeli stamps/links, political/diplomatic eligibility, mission interview, airline checks, border discretion and regional security disruption can change the practical answer. Reconfirm on the official Iran MFA eVisa portal or the relevant Iranian mission before booking.

Conditional rules

Other visa type or longer stay Visa required

Iran MFA's eVisa pages list separate visa types such as entry, tourist, transit, press, family, trading, diplomatic and service. Work, residence, study, family, press or longer stays should not be treated as this short tourist/visitor route.
Interview, in-person mission handling or political/diplomatic eligibility Conditional

Iran MFA says some visa applicants may need a visa interview, some types for citizens of some countries may need to be applied for only in person through an Iranian embassy, and some citizens may not be issued visas due to political or diplomatic considerations.
Dual nationality or incompatible visa nationality Conditional

The Iran MFA traveller application page says dual nationals should use the nationality on the travel document they will carry and that a visa is void if the visa nationality is incompatible with the passport nationality.
Transit through Iran Conditional

The Iran MFA traveller application includes a transit visa type. Airside or landside transit should be checked against the exact airport, route and carrier rather than assumed visa-free.
