Fuel prices differ not only in each city but also in each province, with the highest price touching €1.729 per litre for unleaded petrol with 98 octane and is located in Paphos.

It is worth noting that the reduction measure of the fuel consumption tax, which has been applied for several months as compensation for the increased energy costs and the burden on consumers, was abolished on April 1st.
The government’s decision to abolish this measure resulted in an increase of 8.3 cents per litre in the price of automotive fuels and 6.4 cents per litre in the price of heating oil.
