A portfolio on the Tehran Stock Exchange does not travel with you. Sejam, brokerage platforms, TSETMC and Codal all refuse connections from outside Iran, so from abroad you cannot check a position, let alone place an order. A real Iranian IP puts you back in front of your own account.
Online trading panels that timed out from abroad load and stay logged in once your session carries a domestic IP.
Your Sejam profile, live market data and company filings — the whole research side of trading, not just the order screen.
Your broker's session stays HTTPS end-to-end and the VPN wraps it in another encrypted layer. We keep no logs of where you connect.
Brokerages and the market infrastructure around them are regulated financial services, and like the banks they limit access to domestic IP ranges. The restriction sits in front of the login form: your username and password are never even evaluated. From Toronto or Berlin the platform looks broken, when in fact it is doing exactly what it was configured to do.
Because a trading account is tied to your Sejam profile, and Sejam is tied to your national ID and Iranian mobile number, the whole chain assumes you are inside the country. That assumption is what a domestic IP restores.
With an Iranian IP address your connection is indistinguishable from one in Tehran, which brings back:
An IP address is one requirement out of several. These are the parts a VPN genuinely cannot solve:
If you trade actively, connect before market open rather than mid-session — reconnecting while an order screen is loaded can log you out and cost you a fill. Smart routing can send only your trading and banking traffic through the Iranian tunnel so everything else runs at full local speed.
Iranian brokerage platforms and the Sejam portal restrict access to domestic IP ranges. The check happens before the login form, so from abroad the page times out or shows an access-denied message no matter how correct your credentials are. An Iranian IP removes that barrier.
Yes for the IP restriction — sejam.ir and the brokerage sites that check your Sejam status load normally with an Iranian IP. Completing a brand-new Sejam registration is a separate matter, because identity verification requires an Iranian mobile number and, depending on the method offered, either a video call or a visit to an authorised office.
Yes. Market data on TSETMC and company filings on Codal are among the sites that intermittently refuse foreign connections. With an Iranian IP they behave exactly as they do inside Iran.
In most cases yes. Brokerages send one-time passwords by SMS to the number registered in your Sejam profile, and SMS travels over the mobile network rather than the internet, so a VPN cannot deliver it. Keep that SIM active through roaming or a dual-SIM phone.
The connection itself is safer, not riskier: your broker's session is already HTTPS and the VPN adds a second encrypted layer between your device and our servers. We keep no logs of the sites you visit — see the Privacy Policy. Your broker's own terms about where you may log in from still apply — that is between you and them.
Free to start — connected to Sejam and your brokerage in under a minute.
