Briefings
The Brazilian Ministry of Finance announced that the R$ 1.40 per liter subsidy for imported diesel will end after October 13, 2026, following the expiration of Portaria 3.082. This measure was created to offset rising international fuel prices, affecting over 25% of Brazil's consumption. The R$ 2.12 per liter subsidy for road diesel remains active under Portaria 3.181. While the government noted the possibility of re-evaluation based on oil price trends, the immediate impact is the cessation of the import subsidy, leaving the road diesel benefit unchanged.
Key points
- The R$ 1.40 per liter subsidy for imported diesel ends on October 13, 2026, after the expiration of Portaria 3.082.
- The R$ 2.12 per liter subsidy for road diesel remains active under Portaria 3.181 until October 27, 2026.
Context
This subsidy adjustment occurs amid a fiscal adjustment package approved by the Senate that proposes removing up to R$ 10.5 billion in diesel subsidies from the 2026 fuel tax target. The decision follows a one-month trial period initiated by the government in response to international oil price volatility.
Limitations
The evidence covers only the specific subsidy changes announced on November 13, 2026. It does not include data on the economic impact on consumers, production costs, or future price trends beyond the stated possibility of re-evaluation. The source explicitly states the possibility of re-evaluation depends on oil price evolution, making long-term projections uncertain.
