Issa Zarepour made the remarks in the southeastern city of Zahedan on Thursday.
“[The process of construction of] the first phase of the port is being completed thanks to round-the-clock endeavor,” he said.
He noted that the process had so far witnessed as much as “56-percent physical progress.”
“The facility would be inaugurated by the Ten-Day Dawn ceremonies,” the minister said.
He was referring to the 10-day-long annual celebrations that mark the historic run-up to the victory of the country’s Islamic Revolution in 1979. The celebrations will start in late January next year.
The spaceport is expected to host its first launch by next March, Zarepour added.
The official said construction of the facility had begun under Ebrahim Raeisi’s administration, referring to Iran’s former president, who was martyred alongside his companions in a helicopter crash last month.
The spaceport, he concluded, would also serve as a tribute to the late chief executive.
Despite sanctions imposed by Western countries in recent years, Iran has taken giant strides in its civilian space program.
