What has changed?

To keep prices affordable, the lower excise duty on petrol, diesel, and LPG has been extended by one year to 1 January 2027. However, the discount is lowser as a result of a change made by the House of Representatives (Tweede Kamer). This means excise duties are:

• €0.84 per litre petrol
• €0.55 per litre diesel
• €0.20 per litre LPG

By extending the excise duty reduction, the government wants to keep driving affordable for everyone.

For whom?

• Entrepreneurs who have fuel costs for their business travel.
