The Civil Aviation Authority and the Iranian Civil Aviation Organization signed, in Tehran Friday, the Service Providers Agreement to activate the Doha Flight Information Region between the State of Qatar and the Islamic Republic of Iran, which entered into effect as of this date.

The agreement was signed on the Qatari side by Mohammed Faleh Al Hajri, who is charged with heading the General Authority of Civil Aviation in the interim, and by President of the Civil Aviation Organization of Iran Mohammad Mohammadi Bakhsh on the Iranian side.

Two agreements were signed last April between the two countries. The first was a bilateral agreement for operations linking the Doha Flight Information Region (which was established in accordance with an ICAO resolution) with the Flight Information Region in Iran, and an agreement to increase the number of flights between Qatar and Iran.
