From 1948 to 1979, this diplomatic mission was known as the Embassy of the State of Israel in Tehran (Hebrew: שגרירות מדינת ישראל טהראן; Arabic: سفارة دولة اسرائيل طهران) when Iran and Israel had diplomatic relations until the Iranian Revolution.
The Palestine Liberation Organization backed the 1979 revolution, and several days after the revolution, PLO chief Yasser Arafat led a Palestinian delegation to Iran. The Palestinian delegates were publicly welcomed, and symbolically handed the keys to the former Israeli embassy in Tehran, which later became a Palestinian embassy. Hani al-Hassan, one of the key diplomatic figures of the PLO, was appointed as the first ambassador of Palestine to Iran.
