Washington: The US Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control on May 1 warned shipping companies they could face punitive sanctions if they make payments to Iran to secure passage through the Strait of Hormuz, including purportedly charitable donations to organisations such as the Iranian Red Crescent Society. The advisory specified payment forms that risk penalties, including cash, digital assets, swaps and in-kind transfers. The move follows reports that Iran has offered tolls for safe passage and recently sent a negotiation proposal to Pakistani mediators, raising questions over maritime insurance and routing. Shipping firms, energy traders and insurers face compliance decisions this week as authorities assess enforcement; the advisory may deter payments and influence negotiations amid ongoing regional hostilities reported since Feb 28.
