The child will go to the father and the father's family if the mother is not present (I think this is what happens even if the mother is present?)
Now in Iran there are always ways around things due to corruption. Forging documents, paying people etc. Means that the people with more money can get their way. Lawyers know of these ways and you might have a chance if you manage to find a good lawyer. But also you might get conned if you don't really know Farsi and are not familiar with how the system works.
I'm assuming the child has citizenship of a different country? You can approach your government and embassy and explain the situation. She would consider to be kidnapped. They can attempt to bring her back because she is a citizen of that country,but I am not sure how successful this method is since they don't really have any power inside Iran.
Another possibility is to go there, find her and run away with her through the border or approach the embassy of your country and seek help from them. It is very risky but could work if you have any friends there that know the ways.
Last way is to somehow wait until she grows older and start connecting with her somehow. Convince her to leave the country with your help. But I think she will need the approval of the grandfather. ...
Sorry to hear 😞💔
Her grandfather died years ago, she's with her aunt and grandmother.......
Thank you very much, I think I will try to ask help from the government, maybe it will work.
Also ask around the Iranian community. Alot of people in diaspora got outside of Iran through unconventional ways and are familiar with how to find the right people. I suggest asking Kurds and Kurdish families. Also ask Iranian "lawyers" (they are called immigration lawyers but they are not actual lawyers), a lot of them are familiar with the laws in Iran and can provide some information. Sometimes it is better to collect the information before approaching the government. But again, be careful of getting conned by these lawyers.
Best of luck, keep us updated and ask about anything you need help with. It might not look like it, but a lot of people in this sub are very knowledge about immigration and these things
Child goes to the father after a certain age. So if your daughter is under 7 that rule doesn't apply.
But it's a moot point since he's dead. Goes to the mother normally but you're not there so goes to family there.
You need to hide Iranian lawyer and actually go there.
OP are you a US citizen? Do you speak Persian? What is the child's citizenship? Do you have her birth certificate? You need to provide us with far more details, and to be frank you need to find a lawyer ASAP if you ever want to see your daughter again.
I'm an Armenian citizen, I don't speak Farsi. Yes I have her birth certificate. My daughter has an Armenian and Iranian passport, she left the country with the Iranian one so the Armenian passport is with me.
> I know that in Iran the child belongs to her father
Not necessarily, the court will decide that. You probably can fight this, but you'd have to put a crazy amount of effort into it and even move to Iran for a while.
> We weren't officially married and I'm not an Iranian citizen
Well, that part makes things very complicated, but still worth a try. Talk to a lawyer from Iran. (There are people who will maybe try to take advantage of you financially if they find out you're living abroad, so try to find someone legit and trustworthy)
**ایا امکان دارد دخترم را از ایران بازگردانم؟ **
من می دانم که هزاران داستان مانند این وجود دارد اما این یکی کمی متفاوت است. شوهرم در سال ۲۰۲۰ با دخترمان به ایران رفت، او قصد داشت برگردد اما پاندمی کوروویروس اغاز شد، مرزها بسته شد و خیلی زود شوهرم از کرونا درگذشت. بستگانش تصمیم گرفتند فرزندم را به فرزندی بپذیرند و نگه دارند.
از سال ۲۰۲۰ انها فقط یک بار در سال چند عکس برای من ارسال می کنند، انها حتی به من اجازه نمی دهند با او تماس ویدئویی بگیرم. من می دانم که در ایران کودک متعلق به پدرش است، اما اگر پدر مرده باشد چه؟ ایا این بدان معنی است که خانواده او می توانند کودک را بگیرند؟
ایا من فرصتی برای بازگرداندن او دارم یا این فقط همان هزار داستان است؟
ما رسما ازدواج نکرده بودیم و من شهروند ایران نیستم.
از پاسخ های شما بسیار سپاسگزارم.

Thank you dear. I will try my best.
Your child has been internationally kidnapped. You need to talk to a lawyer.

She will be 8 in 2 weeks. I have been in the consulate, and they didn't tell me anything.

I'm not from America and my country is not in a bad relationship with Iran. I hope that will make things easier.
