How Iranians move money abroad despite US sanctions

Original: How do Iranians move money abroad to avoid US sanctions? https://www. aljazeera.com/news/2026/10/14/ how-do-iranians-mov

Al Jazeera examines the methods Iranians use to move money abroad in defiance of US sanctions. The report details informal currency brokers, cryptocurrency transfers and other workarounds, noting that while each route helps Iranians circumvent the restrictions, every method carries its own risks and costs. The piece highlights how ordinary people and businesses cope with a financial system largely cut off from international banking.

Why now: Renewed focus on US sanctions against Iran is driving interest in how ordinary Iranians evade the financial restrictions.
