Vietnam fuel prices drop significantly amid regional comparisons
Fuel prices in Vietnam have seen a continuous decline, marking the third consecutive adjustment period with reductions. As of November 5, 2026, retail prices for common products have dropped significantly: E5RON92 gasoline fell by 2,305 VND/liter, E10RON95-III gasoline decreased by 2,075 VND/liter, diesel 0.05S dropped by 180 VND/liter, and mazut 180CST 3.5S decreased by 1,969 VND/kg.
This downward trend is attributed to tax reduction policies and the impact of global market fluctuations. In comparison to neighboring countries, Vietnam’s fuel prices remain notably lower. For instance, gasoline prices in Vietnam are approximately 10,845 VND/liter lower than in Thailand and 10,731 VND/liter lower than in Cambodia.
On the global market, Brent crude remains below the 100 USD/barrel threshold, while WTI is trading around 90 USD/barrel. Despite recent volatility and supply signals from the Middle East, international oil prices have generally trended lower compared to the beginning of November.
