Inspection and surveillance of the conditions of detention and imprisonment form an essential part of the system of protection for people deprived of their liberty. With the expansion and stabilization of human rights standards, national monitoring mechanisms emerged in various forms, and the idea of international control and surveillance of detention facilities by international institutions became a reality with the adoption of the optional protocol of the Convention for the Prevention of Torture. This study aims to assess prison surveillance through internal inspections, analyze the effectiveness of independent national preventive mechanisms in various countries, and explore the potential platforms for monitoring Iran's prisons and penal services by examining international mechanisms. Based on the examination of rules, regulations, and existing procedures, inspections of prisons in Iran are conducted exclusively by the governmental authorities through internal inspection and judicial supervision. A significant step toward establishing impartial national monitoring of human rights issues will be the Iranian Parliament's approval of the bill creating the National Human Rights Institution. In light of the Iranian government's critiques of international organizations, the only potential international forum that may inspect Iran's jails and penal services is the Special Procedures of the United Nations Human Rights Council.
