According to Iran's Fars News Agency, Iran has moved to the implementation phase of charging vessels for passage through the Strait of Hormuz, with a fee of $1.5 to $2 million per ship reportedly being collected. The plan, drafted after a parliamentary visit to Bandar Abbas, is managed by a committee under the Ministry of Economy and supervised by the Supreme National Security Council. Some payments are reportedly made in Tether (USDT), goods, or barter arrangements, not cash.
