The Iranian Rial (IRR) is the official currency of Iran, identified by the ISO 4217 code "IRR" and numeric code 364. Its symbol is ﷼, and amounts are typically formatted with 2 decimal places (e.g., ﷼12,345,678).
In software development, currency codes are essential for e-commerce, financial applications, and internationalization. The JavaScript Intl.NumberFormat API supports formatting amounts in IRR with locale-aware separators and symbols. Payment processors like Stripe and PayPal require ISO 4217 currency codes when processing transactions.
When building multi-currency applications, store amounts in the smallest unit (e.g., cents for IRR) to avoid floating-point precision errors. Use the decimal places value (2) to correctly convert between major and minor units. APIs like exchangeratesapi.io and Open Exchange Rates provide real-time conversion rates for IRR.
