The government plans to extend fuel price control measures until January 31, 2027, including reduced diesel excise and capped profit margins for oil companies. Without the excise reduction, diesel prices could rise to 11.75 lei per liter. The Ministry of Finance estimates that maintaining the tax cut could cost the state budget up to 460 million lei monthly. Current measures aim to mitigate the impact of rising fuel prices on consumers and businesses. The project is set for government approval before October 31, 2026, and may also be extended to March 2027 if a legislative amendment passes.
