The Finance Ministry will maintain the 25% reduction in the excise duty on standard diesel from October 16 to 31, 2026, to limit the impact of rising fuel costs on the population and the economy.

The reduction is equivalent to 701.07 lei per 1,000 liters, or 829.69 lei per tonne. Thus, the effective excise duty will remain at 2,103.22 lei per 1,000 liters, or 2,489.05 lei per tonne.

The decision is based on the mechanism provided for by Law No. 162/2026, which reassesses market indicators every two weeks. For the October 16–31 period, Platts diesel quotations increased by 47.78%, while the average pump price of standard diesel rose by 35.60%.

The measure aims to reduce the knock-on effect of price increases in transport and logistics, as well as pressure on consumer goods prices.

On October 15, diesel cost 10.86 lei per liter at Petrom and Socar, 10.92 lei at OMV, Rompetrol and Lukoil, and 10.96 lei at MOL.

Context: Acciza la motorină a fost ajustată periodic în 2026, pe fondul creșterilor de pe piața internațională

În 2026, Ministerul Finanțelor a menținut și a modificat reducerea accizei la motorina standard în funcție de evoluția prețurilor. Măsura a fost aplicată în intervale succesive, iar mecanismul de ajustare a fost legat de reevaluarea indicatorilor de piață la fiecare două săptămâni, conform Legii nr. 162/2026.

În prima parte a lunii octombrie, cotațiile internaționale pentru motorină au crescut, iar prețul mediu la pompă a avansat, ceea ce a determinat autoritățile să continue intervenția fiscală pentru a limita efectul scumpirilor asupra transportului și logisticii, precum și asupra prețurilor bunurilor de consum.

Anterior, reducerea accizei a fost și ea schimbată: după o diminuare aplicată în august, acciza a fost majorată la 25% de la 1 septembrie, iar ulterior a existat și o reducere temporară până la jumătatea lunii septembrie. În paralel, prețurile din stații au oscilat, inclusiv în raport cu pragul de 10 lei/litru, pe măsură ce companiile au ajustat prețurile.
