Fuel prices in Belgium(estimates)
Current national averages, cheapest stations and an editorial guide to refuelling in Belgium.
Euro 95
€1.684
Diesel
€1.923
LPG
€0.832
Belgium operates a maximum-price system (prix maximum / maximumprijs) updated daily by the FOD Economie. Posted prices are caps — discount stations like Q8 Easy, Octa+ and Power often sit several cents below.
Taxes
Accijns plus 21% BTW. A cliquet system adjusts excise when crude prices fall.
When prices dip
Because the maximum price is set daily, prices change every weekday morning. Watch for downward steps after weekend price drops.
Tips
- Diesel and Euro 95 prices are nearly identical in Belgium — choose by engine type, not price.
- Luxembourg (a short drive from Arlon) is consistently 15–25 cents cheaper.
- Avoid motorway stations on the E40/E411 — town stations are 8–12 cents cheaper.

Ways to cut your per-litre cost
Beyond picking the cheapest pump, three approaches change what you actually pay.
Fuel cards
Regular long-distance and cross-border drivers
Settle at a negotiated network price rather than the pump price, and reclaim VAT on foreign fills in one statement.
Watch out: Network coverage varies by country, and some cards carry a monthly or per-transaction fee that outweighs the discount at low mileage.
Supermarket and unmanned stations
Local driving with a station choice within a few kilometres
Unmanned and hypermarket forecourts consistently price below motorway and branded sites in the same area.
Watch out: A detour costs fuel too — the /detour calculator shows when the trip is worth it.
Part-electric running
Predictable commutes with home or workplace charging
Cost per 100 km on home electricity is typically well below diesel or petrol at current European pump prices.
Watch out: Public rapid charging can cost as much as fuel; the saving depends on where you charge, not on the car alone.
