According to a New York Times report, multiple informed officials and diplomatic sources revealed that Oman has submitted a formal proposal to the U.S. and its Western allies, proposing to jointly impose passage fees on vessels transiting the Strait of Hormuz with Iran to support channel security and operational management. The report noted that the plan partially draws on the operational models of the Malacca and Singapore Straits. Regional diplomatic sources said the fees would be voluntary, but Iran has stated that payment would be mandatory. To date, the U.S. has received Oman’s proposal and expressed reservations about the arrangements, adding that it will continue consultations with Oman. U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio previously stated that the U.S. opposes any charges for transiting the Strait of Hormuz in the form of "fees, tolls, or donations", arguing that the pre-conflict free navigation status should be restored. The report pointed out that the future management arrangement of the Strait of Hormuz remains a key topic in U.S.-Iran peace talks. Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi said Iran will soon launch negotiations with Oman to discuss matters including the fee mechanism and route adjustments.
