A professional and educated midwifery workforce is essential to provide high-quality maternal and newborn care. Midwives’ awareness and knowledge of professional rules and regulations would be necessary for correct practice. Accordingly, this study aimed to investigate midwives’ awareness and knowledge of the professional rules and regulations in Iran. In this systematic review study, the PICO guidelines were used to find the relevant articles through searching MeSH terms in Irandoc, SID, Scopus, EMBASE, Cochrane, Magiran, and PubMed databases up to September 7, 2023. The JBI checklist was used to assess the quality of the articles. This systematic review investigated 14 cross-sectional studies with a total of 2161 participants. The results demonstrated that midwives in Iran do not have a satisfactory level of awareness and knowledge about the professional rules and regulations. Based on the results, much more focus is required to enhance the awareness and knowledge of midwives about the professional rules and regulations. The results of this study can be used for developing educational programs on midwifery professional rules and regulations as a necessity for providing high-quality maternal and newborn care
