Albania sets fuel price caps with diesel not exceeding 210 lek per litre

.TIRANA, April 17 – Albania’s Transparency Board has set new maximum fuel prices that take effect at 1600 local time on Friday. The decision caps retail diesel prices at no more than 210 Lek per litre.

The board set wholesale diesel prices at no more than 198 Lek per litre. Retail petrol prices will not exceed 176 Lek per litre, while wholesale petrol will reach up to 164 Lek per litre. Authorities said the measures reflect international market trends and exchange rate movements.

Officials noted that the board had reduced diesel prices to 207 Lek per litre two days earlier. They said the updated caps will remain in force until the next review meeting. Authorities require all wholesale and retail operators to comply with the set prices.

Regulators warned that violations may lead to suspension of business activity. The board said excise levels remain unchanged under a recent legal act, as prices stay below defined thresholds.
