Iran's sustained military presence on Hormuz Island and adjacent features in the Strait of Hormuz underpins trader views that the island will remain under Tehran’s control through late 2026. Since February 2026 conflict escalation, Iran has reinforced island-based missile, drone, and naval assets while pursuing diplomatic recognition via talks with Oman and a US memorandum of understanding on strait administration. US Central Command strikes on Iranian coastal sites, including Larak Island in late August, and Gulf Cooperation Council opposition to Iranian tolls or routing authority have tested but not displaced this position. Ongoing negotiations, potential further US responses to mine-laying or vessel threats, and any shifts in Oman’s stance represent the main variables that could alter probabilities before year-end resolution windows.

"No longer under the control of Iran" means that Iran no longer exercises primary governmental or military control over Hormuz Island, and another state, occupying force, or internationally backed authority has established control over the island.
Temporary raids, isolated landings, special operations, bombardment, sabotage, naval presence offshore, or temporary disruption of Iranian activity will not qualify on their own.
An announcement, threat, or claim that Iran has lost control will not qualify without actual control being established.
If control changes pursuant to a negotiated settlement, ceasefire term, surrender, or transfer agreement, this will qualify only once actual control has been established on the island.
If control over Hormuz Island is contested, unclear, disputed, or not sufficiently established by the resolution date, this will not qualify, and the market will resolve to "No".
The primary resolution source will be official statements from the relevant governments and militaries, along with a consensus of credible reporting.
