The Government of the Islamic Republic of Iran has not amended laws that violate the rights of women or that undermine their equal and full enjoyment of civil, political, social and economic rights. The draft law on the protection of women against violence, as of now, infringes on the rights of women and may incite violence against women by not criminalizing domestic violence, marital rape or child marriage. The Government of the Islamic Republic of Iran has not reconsidered laws that insist that women must seek permission to travel from their spouses. The Government of the Islamic Republic of Iran, however, has facilitated the ability of women to pass on their citizenship to their children. Recommendation Status: This recommendation has been PARTIALLY implemented. 9
