Apostasy in Islam (Arabic: ارتداد, irtidād or ridda‎) is commonly defined in Islam as the rejection in word or deed of one's former religion (apostasy) by a person who was previously a follower of Islam.

Not sure if that is how it is meant in Iran though.

If that is what is meant, does that mean you can only be christian if you emigrate to the country that way or are "born" that way?
