Latest information regarding restricted usage in Iran, June 2025

Iridium
"Currently, Iridium is not restricting any of our services in or around Iran.

Iridium ground and space networks are performing as expected, and we believe any service issues experienced are local/regional to the device. It is recommended that users experiencing connectivity issues take steps to mitigate any identified sources of obstruction or RF interference and then retry their transmission.

We recognize that some of the local environmental conditions related to obstructions and RF interference may not be ideal and may be outside the user's and Iridium's control. In these cases, we ask that you advise end users to take these factors into consideration when attempting to use our service."

Inmarsat
"Iran is a sanctioned country and we cannot provide any services or hardware to Iran.
Any Viasat + Inmarsat services found to be active/activated by one of our partners in this region are deactivated immediately."

Thuraya
"No issues in Thuraya network over Iran, Thuraya services are guaranteed in the region.."

General technical coverage
For Thuraya and Inmarsat we have indicated the elevation angle to the satellite and the azimuth. The flatter the satellite is above the horizon, the more difficult the reception will be depending on topography and buildings. This should clarify our classification. For fixed installations, the elevation angle is not crucial as long as the antenna has a clear view to the satellite.

Iridium has orbiting satellites. Here the proximity to the equator plays the decisive role, because at the equator the satellite density of the Iridium network is lowest. On the sea, however, this is negligible because there is a clear view all around, even to satellites located flat above the horizon.
