Iran has begun drafting the Regulations on Environmental Service Charges for the Strait of Hormuz, marking an early step toward a potential fee framework tied to the strategic waterway. A preliminary draft has recently been completed, but the charging standards and the specific collection mechanism have not been finalized, Vice President and head of the Department of Environment Shina Ansari said, according to CCTV News. The move points to possible new environmental-cost rules for traffic through the strait, though key commercial details remain undecided.
