The Persian Gulf Strait Authority, an Iranian government agency mandated to authorize and regulate maritime transit through the strait of Hormuz, said vessels using routes outside its designated framework will not be covered by safe-passage guarantees, insurance protections or related liability arrangements, APA reports citing Iran International.
Responding to what it called repeated inquiries, the PGSA said any transit outside its approved routes would be considered unauthorized and would fall outside the authority’s safety assurances.
It added that the consequences of using unauthorized routes would rest with the vessel’s owner, operator and captain.
