From Friday (April 17), the limit of 400 euros for pumping diesel fuel into car tanks will no longer apply. This results from the change in the regulation of measures to limit the consumption of diesel fuel during the state of oil emergency, which was approved by the government on Wednesday. However, the restriction on pumping diesel into portable containers with a maximum volume of ten liters remains in force for the next 30 days.
- As of Friday, April 17, the limit of four hundred euros for diesel will cease to apply.
- The thirty-day restriction on refueling in canisters of a maximum of ten liters continues to apply.
- The special pricing of diesel fuel is being extended by thirty days in Slovakia.
- The Slovak government approved these refueling restrictions and double prices on March 18.
- The European Commission labeled Slovak fuel measures as a violation of European Union law.
“It is also proposed to extend the period during which special diesel pricing is introduced at gas stations in the territory of the Slovak Republic by another 30 days,” specified the Ministry of Economy of the Slovak Republic in the approved proposal.
Restrictions on diesel refueling and dual fuel prices for domestic and foreign motorists were initially approved by the government on March 18. Shortly after that, the European Commission labeled them as a violation of EU law.
