Officials reported that Iran's total fertility rate dropped to 1.34 children per woman in 2025.

“To maintain the country's current population of approximately 87 million, the total fertility rate must reach 2.1 children per woman of reproductive age. If the current trend continues and the demographic window closes within the next 15 years, Iran's population could decline to 31 million over the next 75 years,” the statement warned.
