Fuel prices set to reach one of the highest values ever next week

SIC Notícias12 September 2026 at 13:09

Fuel prices in Portugal will once again reach one of the highest values ever next week, according to forecasts. This situation occurs despite changes to the ISP (Excise Duty on Petroleum Products) implemented by the Government.

Both gasoline and diesel will continue to be sold above 2 euros per liter, a value that has worried Portuguese consumers. This high price trend remains firm in the national market.

The international situation continues to be the main factor pressuring the increase in fuel prices. Global oil market dynamics continue to directly influence the values practiced at fuel stations in Portugal.

Why this matters

Portuguese consumers will be directly affected by the price increase at the pump, feeling the impact on household budgets and transportation costs. This situation comes as a result of the Government's fiscal changes and reflects the continued pressure from international markets on fuel prices.
