Briefings
Portugal's fuel prices are set to drop by 8.6 cents per liter for gasoline and rise by 1 cent for diesel in the coming week due to temporary tax adjustments. This follows a 54.5-cent increase in diesel and 39.6-cent rise in gasoline since March 2, with Brent crude futures climbing 6% to $116.72 per barrel. The government cites a shift in market expectations for the next week, while geopolitical tensions involving Israel, Iran, and the Houthis continue to influence global energy markets.
Key points
- Gasoline prices in Portugal will decrease by 8.6 cents per liter while diesel prices will increase by 1 cent per liter in the next week.
- The price drop for gasoline is based on a temporary reduction in the tax on fuel products and energy products (ISP) approved by the Parliament.
Context

The government announced a reduction in the tax on fuel products and energy products (ISP) effective the following Monday, which will lead to lower prices for consumers.
