The council's Spokesman Abbas-Ali Kadkhodaei told Press TV on Wednesday that the body had reviewed all complaints lodged by the presidential candidates.
The remarks came as the Guardian Council extended a deadline to endorse the results of the elections.
The Iranian official said the extension of the deadline to endorse the poll was a confidence-building move and there had been no major irregularities in the vote.
He concluded that the final decision of the council is expected to be declared at the end of the five-day extra time.
