Last Update:

Pricing policy: Prices are uniform. Since Nov 2000, official prices have been published weekly according to an import-parity pricing formula. Petroleum products are taxed with a specific and an ad-valorem tax which vary by fuel type. By law, the specific tax should be indexed to inflation with quarterly adjustments, but government starting in 2007 has chosen not to implement the indexation. By regulation, maximum prices for LPG must be the same for residential, commercial, and industrial consumers.

Social protection: In Sep 2008, the price subsidy for LPG was eliminated and replaced with a social protection scheme whereby 730,000 bonogas cards were issued to poor families, entitling them to a monthly reduction of RD$228 (US$6.30 at the time) for LPG purchase.

Information: Government posts current and historical fuel prices every week on its Web site, showing data going back to Jan 2008. In addition, selective data going back to 2001 are also posted."
