Islamic countries enjoying various geographical ecosystems, worldwide population dispersion and rich culture are getting more and more important within tourism industry. Among Islamic countries, some states like Turkey and Malaysia have adopted appropriate policies and effective measures to take advantage of this industry in their international and regional communication and cultural diplomacy. On the other hand, some others like Iran have not been successful in this competitive arena as expected. Although our country enjoys great potentials, Iran has not achieved a recognized stance in tourism and cultural exchanges. This comparative survey has been conducted with library and documentary method referring to the information and data of national and international institutions especially World Tourism Organization. The main focus of this survey is to explore the factors hindering tourism development in Iran. The findings of this study indicate that lack of scientific and global requirements and underlying principles have kept Iran’s tourism industry behind. Moreover, lack of effective laws and regulations and poor performance of executive institutions have discouraged tourism industry in Iran. These factors, on the whole, have exerted official and unofficial restrictions to this industry and public and cultural diplomacy of the country.
