Santo Domingo – President Luis Abinader announced that fuel prices in the Dominican Republic will remain stable until January 7, 2027, provided that the government’s subsidies to manage increases do not exceed RD$1.5 billion per week.
This decision was made during an extended meeting of the Price Committee held at the National Palace, where officials discussed the effects of the ongoing international crisis on fuel prices and consumer goods.
The initiative is designed to protect Dominican consumers from fluctuations in global oil prices by utilizing government subsidies to stabilize domestic fuel costs.
Authorities are closely monitoring pressures on global energy prices, which could affect fuel expenses and the overall economy in the Dominican Republic. No immediate changes to prices are expected as the government continues to evaluate the situation.
