Slovakia diesel market stabilization measures

Overview

Following a declared state of oil emergency, the Slovak government implemented emergency measures to stabilize the diesel market. These actions were taken to ensure domestic fuel supplies amid increased demand from foreign buyers and fuel tourism in northern border regions.

Restrictions include limiting diesel sales to vehicle tanks and a single 10-liter portable container, alongside a 400-euro spending limit per refueling. To prevent shortages, the government introduced temporary diesel export restrictions and a special diesel price for vehicles registered outside of Slovakia, based on average prices in neighboring Austria, the Czech Republic, and Poland.
