Russia Imposes Complete Ban on Gasoline Export Starting April 1st

Moscow – Russia will implement a complete ban on the export of gasoline, effective April 1st, according to reports from Interfax. The decision, confirmed by multiple sources briefed on a meeting with Deputy Prime Minister and oil companies head, Aleksandr Novak, will apply to all market participants involved in gasoline sales. Previously, restrictions on gasoline export were limited to companies not involved in production.

However, the new regulation broadens the scope to encompass the entire market. Sources indicate that the duration of the export ban remains undetermined, with potential restrictions lasting up to three months. The move follows discussions with key industry figures and is intended to address domestic supply concerns.

Notably, the export of diesel fuel is not currently under consideration as part of this policy change. The ban represents a significant shift in Russia’s petroleum market strategy. Authorities are focused on stabilizing internal fuel prices and ensuring sufficient supply for domestic consumers.

Further updates will be provided as the situation develops. The keywords “export,” “gasoline,” and “russia” are included within the text.
