Iran Adds 11 More Vessels to Strait of Hormuz Blacklist Over Non-Compliance
Iran's Persian Gulf Strait Authority has added 11 more vessels to its blacklist of ships barred from transiting the strategic Strait of Hormuz for non-compliance with Iranian protocols, raising the total to 56. The authority warns that vessels cooperating with blacklisted ships may also be added and faces penalties including fines, detention, or confiscation. Cargo owners are advised to consult the updated list before chartering vessels. Removal from the list requires a formal application with justifications.
