An Iranian identity booklet, known as Shenasnameh (Persian: شناسنامه, lit. 'Writ of identity'), is one of the identity documents in Iran. This identity document is in booklet form and issued for Iran citizens at birth. The National Organization for Civil Registration of Iran is obliged to issue an identity booklet to every Iranian citizen.[1][2]
Iranian citizens have two identity documents: one is an Iranian identity card that contains their National Identity Number and the other is the identity booklet that contains more details about the person.[3][4][5]
To participate in the Elections in Iran, having an identity booklet is a requirement.[6][7][8][9]
According to the Civil Registration Reform Law approved on 8 January 1985 in Iran, the cover and the first page of the identity booklet are decorated with the Emblem of the Islamic Republic of Iran.[10][11]

History
According to the decision of the Iran's Cabinet of Ministers on 12 December 1918 during the Qajar era, the regulations for the establishment of the Civil Registry Office in the Ministry of Interior were prepared. The first Iranian identity booklet or Shenasnameh (then called Sajl) was issued on 25 December 1918 for a newborn girl named "Fatemeh Irani".[12][13][14] Because of that in many years later, the third day of Dey (month) (23 or 24 December) has been named as National Organization for Civil Registration Day in Iran.[15]
From March 1925, according to the law, obtaining identity booklet was required for all Iranian citizens in the areas where the Civil Registry Office was established.[16][17]
