For physical book sales, publications from 2020 onwards are accepted, while for virtual sales, books published from 2014 onwards are eligible for inclusion in the fair.

Yemen is the special guest of this edition of the book fair. Initially, India was designated as the special guest of the book fair, but due to restrictions on Indian citizens traveling to Iran, the organizers made the decision to replace India with Yemen
