The first ship passed through the Strait of Hormuz with Iran's "permission" after a US-Iran truce took effect early on Wednesday, the semi-official Mehr News Agency reported.
Ship-tracking service MarineTraffic also said on X that vessel movements resumed in the Strait of Hormuz following the ceasefire.
On Tuesday, US President Donald Trump said he had agreed to "suspend the bombing and attack of Iran for a period of two weeks," adding that the decision was "subject to" Iran agreeing to the complete, immediate and safe reopening of the Strait of Hormuz.
Iranian Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi said Iran would ensure safe passage through the vital maritime pathway during the two-week ceasefire in coordination with its armed forces, adding that Tehran would halt "defensive operations" if attacks against it stop.
The office of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the country would comply with the truce but would continue its attacks in Lebanon.
