Where knowing Persian numeral and numbers in Farsi written comes in handy:
License Plates Number
Considering that most of the cars in Iran look alike; a good way to identify cars such as a taxi or Snapp that you have ordered, a friend’s car or even your own rental car would be by looking at its license plate number. License plate numbers in Iran consist of a five digit numbers in Farsi and a Persian alphabet in the middle of it. Also, a district code with 2 digits is printed at the right side of the license plate.
For example, Tehran city district codes right digits are either 0 or both numbers are the same, such as 22, 33 and so on.
Checking the Prices
Whether you are at a convenience store or at a shop like Tehran grand bazaar or Tajrish traditional bazaar, all shopkeepers are required by law to write the price of their products and exhibit it to the customers. Groceries and factory made goods usually have their prices printed on the packaging, along with the production and expiration date. Although most often they are printed in English numerals, sometimes they might be written in Persian numbers. So this way, you can avoid getting ripped off.
Phone Numbers
Phone numbers in Iran are usually read differently to how we do in the English language (individually). So, for example, this cellphone number is read this way:
0912 123 4567 “sefr nohsad-o-davazdah, sad-o-bist-o-se, chehel-o-panj, shast-o-haft” (“o” means “and”).
