TEHRAN, Iran - Iran has enacted a law requiring American citizens visiting the country to be fingerprinted upon arrival, an official said Saturday.
Conservatives drafted the law in retaliation for the U.S. requirement that Iranian visitors be fingerprinted. The U.S. measure, which also applies to nationals of other countries, was implemented after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.
A spokesman for the Guardian Council, an Iranian constitutional watchdog that must review all bills before they become law, announced its approval of the legislation Saturday, the official Iranian News Agency reported.
Council spokesman Abbas Ali Kadkhodaei said the government now “is required to inspect and fingerprint all American nationals at entry ports and visa issuance centers in consistency with the U.S. behavior.”
