Fuel prices in Bélgica(estimates)

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.
