2025年3月28日，巴拿马海事局宣布已对107艘受国际制裁的船舶实施除籍处理，另有18艘即将被移除船籍注册。

这一强硬举措彰显该国强化国际法规执行的决心。

海事局声明称，本次除籍船舶均位列美国财政部海外资产控制办公室（OFAC）、欧盟及英国制裁名单。

该行动依据2024年通过的新法规实施，该法授权巴拿马当局对出现在任何国际制裁名单中的船舶及船东取消注册资格。

尽管巴拿马船籍注册素以费用低廉、监管宽松吸引船东，但当局正系统性筛查涉嫌参与非法活动的船舶。

海事部门强调，此举将确保巴拿马船旗不再为可疑活动提供便利。

在整顿船籍的同时，巴拿马正着力提升本国商船队质量。值得注意的是，该国近期还陷入与美国政府船舶通行费的争议。

2025年2月5日，美国国务院声称巴拿马同意豁免美政府船舶运河通行费，次日即遭巴拿马总统公开否认。

此事引发国际社会对这个掌控全球重要航运水道国家政策的广泛讨论。

两起事件共同凸显巴拿马规范海运业的双重努力：既通过"制裁除籍"机制维护国际航运秩序，又在巴拿马运河权益问题上展现主权立场。

Panama has taken a bold step in enforcing international regulations by removing 107 ships from its official registry as these ships were sanctioned. An additional 18 will also be removed. Panama Maritime Administration, the agency which oversees ship registrations in the nation made this announcement on March 28, 2025.

The agency stated that the vessels removed from the Panamanian registry were ones that were on the warning lists of OFAC, the EU and the UK.

This step was taken in accordance with a law passed in 2024 which allows the Panama Maritime Administration to cancel the registration of vessels and owners if they are mentioned in any international sanctions list.

Several ships are registered in Panama to take advantage of its low fees and fewer regulations, however,r officials are now identifying vessels that might be part of illegal activities.

The department said that this measure would make sure that no ship or owners linked with suspicious activities could operate under the flag of Panama.

The agency is also working to strengthen Panama’s merchant fleet.

Apart from this, Panama faced another issue regarding the passage of American government ships through the Panama Canal.

On February 5, 2025, the U.S. State Department claimed that Panama had decided to waive transit fees for American government vessels; however, the next day, Panama’s President denied these claims.

This aroused discussions about Panama’s policies regarding the Panama Canal, one of the most important shipping lanes in the world.

Both developments highlight Panama’s efforts in regulating its maritime industry.
