The New Iran's Persian Gulf Strait Authority (PGSA):

The Islamic Republic of Iran has defined the regulatory jurisdiction for the management of the Hormuz_Strait as follows:

“The line connecting Kuh-e Mubarak in Iran to the south of Fujairah in the UAE at the eastern entrance of the Strait, to the line connecting the tip of Qeshm Island in Iran to Umm Al-Quwain in the UAE at the western entrance.”
