Resolution requires both Iran and Oman to announce acceptance of a shared diplomatic agreement specifically addressing maritime traffic policies in the Strait of Hormuz. Because diplomatic language can be vague, the decider must interpret whether separate or joint statements constitute a binding commitment rather than unilateral policies or progress updates. If an announcement occurs but its status is ambiguous, the rules enforce a 14-day waiting period beyond the announcement date to seek clarification through follow-up statements or a consensus of credible reporting, ultimately resolving on the totality of available evidence.

Market explained before close
This market measures whether Oman and Iran announce an official diplomatic agreement regulating or managing shipping and vessel traffic through the Strait of Hormuz by September 30.
How it resolves
The market resolves to Yes if Oman and Iran announce a qualifying diplomatic agreement regarding Strait of Hormuz traffic by September 30 at 11:59 PM ET. The agreement must establish policies, obligations, or commitments aimed at managing, permitting, restoring, or increasing vessel or shipping traffic, such as traffic corridors or fee policies. Both countries must clearly and unambiguously announce acceptance of the same agreement, either jointly or through separate declarative statements. Statements referencing ongoing negotiations, prospective deals, or general support without confirmed acceptance do not qualify. The market resolves to No if no such qualifying agreement is announced by the deadline. If announcements are made by the deadline but ambiguity remains, the market may remain open for up to 14 calendar days to evaluate definitive confirmation or resolve on the totality of information. Resolution is decided using official information from the governments of Oman and Iran and a consensus of credible reporting.

Resolution rules at close
This market will resolve to “Yes” if a diplomatic agreement between Oman and Iran over traffic in the strait of Hormuz is announced by the specified date, 11:59 PM ET. A diplomatic agreement refers to an official agreement, treaty, deal, or substantially similar diplomatic instrument that establishes agreed actions, policies, obligations, or commitments between Oman and Iran. A qualifying diplomatic agreement must establish Iranian or Omani policies, obligations, or commitments aimed at managing, permitting, restoring, or increasing vessel or shipping traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, including agreements defining vessel traffic corridors, fee collection policies, or other management policies. All listed countries must announce their acceptance of the same qualifying diplomatic agreement for the Payout Condition to be met. A joint announcement will qualify, as will separate announcements from each entity of its own acceptance of an agreement which, taken together, directly indicate that all the listed countries accepted the same agreement. Separate announcements of individual policies will not qualify if the policies are not announced as part of a diplomatic agreement. Each announcement must be a declarative statement that clearly and unambiguously communicates acceptance of an agreement. Statements that reference ongoing negotiations or a prospective agreement, or that allude to or express support for an agreement without confirming acceptance of the agreement, do not qualify. A qualifying announcement need not reference the agreement by name or use specific terminology, provided it clearly communicates acceptance of an agreement. Whether announcements from the listed countries represent a diplomatic agreement and whether such an agreement qualifies will be primarily determined through the announcements themselves. Where an announcement is made by all listed countries but, based on the announcements, it remains ambiguous whether the announcements represent a qualifying diplomatic agreement between the countries, this market will remain open until either i) definitive confirmation that the announcements represent a qualifying diplomatic agreement between the listed entities is achieved through further announcements from the listed countries or a consensus of credible reporting or ii) 14 calendar days (ET) have passed after the date that the last country made their first potentially qualifying announcement. If, at the end of the fourteenth calendar day, no definitive confirmation has been achieved, this market will resolve based on the totality of information available from the resolution sources at that time. No single statement, denial, or presentation of evidence will govern where it is contradicted by the totality of information. The resolution sources for this market will be official information from the governments of Oman and Iran and a consensus of credible reporting.
