Accordingly, the price of E5RON92 biofuel is capped at 21,934 VND (0.83 USD) per liter, down 658 VND per liter from the previous level, while RON95-III gasoline now costs no more than 23,042 VND per liter, a decrease of 719 VND per liter.

In this price management period, the authorities decided to allocate funds to the Petroleum Price Stabilization Fund at 200 VND per liter for biofuel, 400 VND per liter for gasoline, and 600 VND per liter or kilogram for diesel and mazut oil. However, they opted not to disburse the funds for any petroleum products
Vietnam’s fuel prices remain lower than those in several neighboring countries, including Thailand, Cambodia, Laos and China, according to the MoIT.
