Additional government intervention: prevented a major increase in fuel prices!

The Croatian government has introduced additional measures to regulate fuel prices in response to rising global oil market prices. These measures include reducing taxes on gasoline by 0.025 EUR per liter and temporarily lowering diesel taxes below the minimum set by EU directives by an additional 0.09 EUR per liter. The government has also reduced the premium for both diesel and gasoline by 0.02 EUR per liter for seven days. The new regulations take effect on September 8, 2026, and will remain in place for seven days. Under these rules, retail prices for gasoline will remain unchanged at 1.67 EUR per liter, while diesel will stay at 1.79 EUR per liter. Blue diesel will increase slightly to 1.34 EUR per liter, and prices for UNP (liquefied petroleum gas) will rise slightly for both containers and large tanks. Without government intervention, retail prices would have been significantly higher.
