Dear fuel, mobile excise duties will not be triggered: +6.1 cents on diesel

The decree on mobile excise duties was not issued, triggering an increase of 6.1 cents per liter on diesel.

Quick Look

  • The 6.1 cent tax discount on diesel in Italy has ended.
  • The government's failure to pass the decree on mobile excise duties caused an immediate increase in prices at the pump, despite previous promises.

AI-generated summary

Why It Matters

The government had announced the introduction of mobile excise duties to compensate for the end of tax rebates on fuel.

Font size

Fuel prices are rising again in Italy. At midnight the tax discount of 6.1 cents per liter on diesel expired: it was the last one launched by the government, financed with some cuts to the ministries.

From today, Tuesday 6 October, the mobile excise duty mechanism should have been triggered: tax discounts on fuel, but financed without touching public budgets. However, despite the announcements made in recent days by Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni and Business Minister Adolfo Urso, the inter-ministerial decree of Economy and Energy Security on mobile excise duties has not arrived. The provision was expected by midnight and had to indicate the fuels affected by the tax discount, the amount of the discount and the period of application. Without the mobile excise duty mechanism coming into play, which was supposed to compensate for the end of the tax discount that expired yesterday, excise duties on diesel will increase by 6.1 cents from today.

Prices of diesel and petrol

At midnight, therefore, the tax discount of 6.1 cents per liter on diesel ended. According to data collected by the Mimit Observatory on fuel prices, the Ministry of Business and Made in Italy has announced that today the average price of fuel in "self-service" mode along the national road network is equal to 2.043 euros per liter for petrol and 2.244 for diesel. On the motorway network, however, the average self-service price is 2.054 euros per liter for petrol and 2.267 euros per liter for diesel. The price of petrol is slightly decreasing compared to yesterday's reading (2.048 euros per litre), while diesel is increasing (yesterday the price was 2.242).

Open Questions

  • When will the mobile excise duty decree be issued?
  • What will be the compensatory measures for consumers?
