Vietnam extends zero import tariff on fuel products to June 30

Resolution 25/2026 prolongs the application of Decree 72/2026, which cuts preferential import tariffs on gasoline, oil products, and related inputs to zero.

From July 1, import tariffs will revert to levels set out in Decree 26/2023 dated May 31, 2023.

The resolution states that its provisions will prevail in case of any differences with other regulations during its validity period.

The Ministry of Finance said the extension is intended to help stabilize the fuel market and ensure domestic energy supply amid uncertain global conditions, while supporting macroeconomic stability.

Decree 72/2026, issued on March 9, reduced import tariffs on unleaded gasoline and blending components such as naphtha and reformate from 10 percent to zero percent.

Tariffs on diesel, fuel oil, jet fuel and kerosene were cut from seven percent to zero percent, while petrochemical inputs including xylene, condensate, and paraxylene were reduced from three percent to zero percent.

Other cyclic hydrocarbons saw tariffs lowered from two percent to zero percent.

The decree was originally set to expire on Thursday before being extended to June 30 under the new resolution.
