Iran plans to charge insurance fees to vessels in Hormuz after US deal expires
Iran plans to charge an 'insurance fee' for vessels transiting the Strait of Hormuz after a 60-day US ceasefire agreement expires. The Persian Gulf Strait Authority (PGSA) outlined the plan, requiring ships to follow designated routes and obtain permits, with Oman's cooperation needed for legal support. The shipping industry is divided, with some Greek figures supporting the fee while others oppose it.
