<p>**Short answer: there is no law <em>against</em> the idea — but it is a regulated healthcare activity that requires Ministry of Health licensing. Operating without a permit is what's illegal, and penalties escalate to permanent revocation and judicial referral.<strong> </strong>✅ verified**</p>

<li>Licensing flows through the <strong>MoH Treatment Deputy (معاونت درمان)</strong>, after approval by the <strong>Article-20 medical-affairs commission</strong> (کمیسیون قانونی تشخیص امور پزشکی موضوع ماده ۲۰), under the <strong>Medical Affairs Law of 1334 (amended 1367)</strong> and the <strong>home-care bylaw approved 1378/7/17 (9 Oct 1999)</strong> — 21 articles, 6 notes.</li>

|

<ul>
|

<li><strong>Care must be delivered in the patient's home; performing services (injections, dressing, vaccination, visits) at the center's HQ is prohibited.</strong> The licensed center is therefore a <strong>dispatch/coordination entity, not a walk-in clinic</strong> — which structurally <em>fits a matchmaking/dispatch platform.</em></li>
|
||||
<li>After <strong>principal approval (موافقت اصولی)</strong>, the founder has <strong>up to one year</strong> to ready the center for final inspection before operating.</li>

|

<ul>
|

<li>An <strong>e-namad (نماد اعتماد الکترونیکی, electronic trust symbol)</strong> is required for an Iranian site providing online services/sales — which includes your platform. Issued <strong>only by the Center for E-Commerce Development (مرکز توسعه تجارت الکترونیکی)</strong> under the Ministry of Industry, Mine and Trade.</li>
|
||||
<li>It is <strong>de facto mandatory for a monetized site</strong> because PSP/Shaparak rules require e-namad to obtain an online payment gateway (IPG). (Note: "mandatory" status has had some regulatory flux.)

|

<ul>
|
||||
<li><strong>Home-care nurses fall outside the "arduous/hazardous work" (سخت و زیانآور) regime</strong> that benefits hospital nurses' insurance/retirement, because the law doesn't specifically name staff of home-care companies. As of 2019, <strong>~700 home-medical-service companies were registered</strong> (target ~1,000); the gap reportedly persisted into 1402–1404 with no closing legislation.

<ul>
|

<li><strong>Taxation & company registration</strong> (ثبت شرکت, tax file, VAT where applicable) — standard for any Iranian business. <strong>[confirm specifics with an accountant]</strong></li>
|
||||
<li><strong>Insurance/social-security (تأمین اجتماعی)</strong> treatment of nurses depends on whether you classify them as employees or contractors (see <a href="problems-and-risks.html">problems & risks §2.2</a>). <strong>[get labor-law counsel — this is the highest-stakes structural decision]</strong></li>
|

<li><strong>Penalty ladder for non-compliance:</strong> verbal/written warning → 1–3 month closure → 3 month–1 year closure → <strong>permanent revocation + referral to judicial authorities.</strong> Operating unlicensed is the real legal risk. <strong>✅ verified</strong></li>
