Antarctica is one of the most important regions on Earth. This importance is due to its special geographical location and the resources available in it. Many countries in the world take advantage of this special location and the many opportunities of this region for their own country's interests. So far, various countries such as Argentina, Australia and New Zealand have claimed sovereignty in this region, and some others, such as the United States and China, have been building permanent bases in this region for many years for various purposes, which, in addition to demonstrating their country's capabilities, also use its other blessings. Since the Antarctic Treaty has many ambiguities and the United Nations does not have a clear position on this continent, this region is still a matter of dispute between countries. With Iran's announcement of its presence in this region, Western countries, especially the United States, oppose this presence. However, it must be said that Iran, like other countries, can use this continent and, in addition to expanding its influence in the international and trans-regional arena, gain various benefits in the fields of science and research. Therefore, the purpose of this article is to examine the legal status and interests of Iran in this continent. Therefore, it should be said that Iran has the right to peaceful research, economic and military use in terms of international law, and this presence is effective for Iran's national interests. This article is written using library documents and resources and news sites and based on a descriptive-analytical method.
