- Content
Correspondence concerning the importation of stores and equipment for wireless stations in the Persian Gulf The historical term used to describe the body of water between the Arabian Peninsula and Iran. (at Bushire, Henjam [Jazīreh-ye Hengām], Jask, and Charbar [Chabahar]) operated by Imperial and International Communications Limited (I&ICL), amid the handover of the stations to the Persian Government. The file is a chronological continuation of papers found in Coll 28/26 ‘Relations with H.M.G Importation of Stores for I.E.T.D. Staff’ (IOR/L/PS/12/3423). The correspondence focuses on the payment of customs duty on materials imported by I&ICL, and efforts to negotiate an exemption of the payment of duty with the Persian Government. The file’s principal correspondents are: various representatives of I&ICL; HM’s Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary A diplomatic representative who ranks below an ambassador. The term can be shortened to 'envoy'. at Tehran; the Foreign Office.
The file includes a printed copy of the 1932 agreement (in English and French) between the British and Persian Governments, for the withdrawal of the Indo-European Telegraph Department from Persia (ff 116-119).
The file includes a divider, which gives a list of correspondence references contained in the file by year. This is placed at the back of the correspondence.
