U.S. Official: No Permits for Hormuz Passage
An American official confirmed that ships passing through the Strait of Hormuz will not be subject to any fees or permits, in response to reports indicating Iran's attempt to impose fees of up to 7% on commercial vessel cargoes. He clarified that the international waterway remains open and is not controlled by a single entity. These remarks come amid discussions about the possibility of reaching a near-term agreement to fully reopen the strait, aiming to provide an open and secure passage for international maritime traffic.
