The Constitutionalist Party of Iran–Liberal Democrat (Persian: حزب مشروطه ايران–لیبرال دموکرات, Hezbé Mashruté Iran-Liberal Demokrat) is an Iranian exiled monarchist political party. The party condemns the Iranian Revolution and awaits for the return of the monarchy under Reza Pahlavi.[3]

German authorities believe the group "is not a serious danger to Iran since its activities are limited to propaganda against the regime."[4]
