Iran’s Parliament Security Committee has approved a new management plan for the Strait of Hormuz that proposes tolls on vessels and restrictions on certain countries, according to Iranian state media.
The Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB) reported that the plan introduces a rial-based toll system for ships transiting the strategic waterway. It also outlines provisions related to maritime security, vessel safety, environmental protection, and financial mechanisms governing passage through the Strait.
The plan bans the passage of US and Israeli vessels and extends restrictions to countries participating in unilateral sanctions against Iran. It also reaffirms Iran’s sovereign control over the Strait and highlights cooperation with Oman to establish a legal framework for its management, IRIB reported.
