Vero has set excise refund amounts for liquid fuels released for consumption from 1 January to 30 June 2026.Vero
Vero The decision takes effect on 10 September 2026.
Vero The decision applies to fuel released for consumption in the first half of the year, so the figures must not be treated as rates for fuel acquired in September simply because the decision was issued then.

Vero LPG is measured by weight: its refund is 31.34 cents per kilogram.
Vero Compared with the July–December 2025 table, the respective totals were 68.70, 48.59 and 26.51 cents per litre and 30.44 cents per kilogram.
Each standard total combines energy-content tax, carbon-dioxide tax and the strategic stockpile fee. Separate amounts apply to combined production: light fuel oil remains at 7.63 cents per litre and LPG at 9.82 cents per kilogram.Vero
Vero Those combined-production amounts consist solely of the energy-content-tax refund; the decision lists zero for the other two components.
Vero’s table instructions link the applicable row to the fuel batch’s acquisition period. For petrol, diesel and light fuel oil, the listed conditions include acquisition after 1 January 2014 and evidence of when the batch was acquired. Petrol and diesel must meet the stated environmental quality requirements, and light fuel oil must contain no more than seven per cent biofuel oil by volume. LPG refunds also use the table.
The guidance explains that half-year average consumption values are used where the applicant cannot reliably establish the fuel’s composition. Different stated fallback amounts apply where fuel does not meet the quality requirements: 35.98 cents per litre for the petrol group, 21.72 for the diesel group, 10.68 for the light-fuel-oil group and 13.40 cents per kilogram for the LPG group.
Refund applications are made in MyTax. Claimants should match the batch, period, product and applicable refund category before selecting an amount.
The legal basis is Vero’s decision on liquid-fuel excise refunds for 1 January–30 June 2026, sections 1–2, issued under section 9d of the Act on Excise Duty on Liquid Fuels.
Match refund claims to the fuel batch released for consumption between 1 January and 30 June 2026, and apply the combined-production refunds of 7.63 cents per litre for light fuel oil and 9.82 cents per kilogram for LPG where relevant.
