IMO mulls voluntary payments fund with HARMZ
The article discusses the efforts of the Sultanate of Oman to manage the Strait of Hormuz amid escalating tensions between the United States and Iran. It presents a proposal to establish a voluntary payment fund for navigation services, modeled after systems in the Málaga and Singapore Straits. Omani officials emphasize that the proposed fees are limited to support services and do not target ship transits. They also reaffirm Oman's commitment to the Law of the Sea and its stance against imposing direct charges on transit passage, while Washington opposes the idea of levying financial fees for passage.
