  • Slovenia will maintain current gasoline prices while diesel and heating oil prices will increase starting June 16, 2026.
  • The government has adjusted excise duties, lowering them for gasoline but keeping them unchanged for diesel and heating oil.
  • Retailer margins remain capped, and fuel prices will continue to be calculated based on global oil market prices and the dollar-to-euro exchange rate.

Slovenia's fuel prices will see a shift next week, with gasoline prices remaining stable and diesel and heating oil prices rising. Starting June 16, 2026, consumers will pay a maximum of 1.592 euros per liter for gasoline, 1.718 euros for diesel, and 1.318 euros for heating oil.

If we did not regulate the prices of NMB 95, according to our estimates, it would cost around 1.696 euros per liter.

The government has implemented changes to excise duties, reducing them for unleaded gasoline. However, there is no room for further reductions for diesel and heating oil, so their duties remain unchanged. The price of 95-octane gasoline, including the adjusted excise duty of 0.41759 euros per liter, will be 1.592 euros per liter outside of highways. Without government regulation, this price could have reached approximately 1.696 euros per liter.

If we did not regulate the prices of diesel, it would cost around 1.822 euros per liter.

Diesel fuel, with an excise duty of 0.33000 euros per liter, will cost 1.718 euros per liter. The government estimates that without regulation, diesel could have cost around 1.822 euros per liter. For heating oil, the price, including an excise duty of 0.07875 euros per liter, will be 1.318 euros per liter. This represents a slight increase from the previous price of 1.312 euros per liter. For a 1,000-liter order, consumers would pay 1,318 euros, saving 104 euros compared to an unregulated price of 1,422 euros.

If we did not regulate the prices of heating oil, it would cost around 1.422 euros per liter.
