BlockBeats News, on March 26th, local time early morning, the Chairman of Iran’s Islamic Parliament Civil Committee stated, “We are seeking a bill that can legally uphold Iran’s sovereignty, control, and regulatory rights over the Strait of Hormuz, while also generating revenue for the country through tolls.”
It is reported that the draft bill has been prepared but has not yet reached the full proposal stage. It will be submitted to the parliamentary research center next week for refinement with the involvement of legal teams, and after the parliamentary meeting, the plan will be submitted and followed up. According to the bill, Iran will impose tolls on ships passing through the Strait of Hormuz.
Previously, sources revealed that Iran has begun charging tolls to some commercial ships passing through the Strait of Hormuz, further indicating Iran’s control over this globally critical maritime energy corridor. Iran is temporarily demanding up to $2 million for single voyages, effectively establishing informal checkpoints in the waterway.
According to PolyBeats monitoring, the probability of the “Strait of Hormuz resuming navigation by the end of April” on the prediction market Polymarket is 34%.
