❗️Strait of Hormuz maritime authority imposes sanctions enforcement against non-compliant commercial vessels The Persian Gulf Strait Authority (PGSA) announced that two foreign bulk carriers were subjected to formal legal action after attempting to navigate toward southern Gulf ports using falsified documentation and without prior coordination. "In recent days, two bulk carriers that had falsified documents and attempted to sail toward ports in southern Gulf countries without coordination were subjected to legal action. By accepting the commitments communicated by the PGSA, they avoided having their names added to the non-compliance list," the PGSA stated. According to official maritime updates, both vessels managed to avoid placement on the authority's non-compliance blacklist by agreeing to adhere to regulatory commitments mandated by the PGSA. The maritime regulatory body further declared that commercial vessels with past operational violations would be granted lighter administrative penalties provided their operators formally acknowledge the infractions via direct electronic correspondence with the authority.
