Q COSTARICA — If you’re running low on fuel or just want to fill up, today is the day to do it.
Fuel prices are set to rise starting Tuesday, so you’ve got until midnight to lock in the current rates.
The government’s official newsletter, La Gaceta, published the updated fuel prices today, Monday.
These new rates were approved last Friday, August 29, by the regulatory authority. The changes include a small drop in the price of super gasoline and increases for regular gasoline and diesel.
Here’s how the new prices break down:
- Super gasoline: ¢663 per liter, down from ¢662
- Regular gasoline: ¢649 per liter, up from ¢643
- Diesel: ¢564 per liter, up from ¢557
The Autoridad Reguladora de los Servicios Públicos (Aresep) explained that these adjustments reflect the costs Recope, Costa Rica’s refinery, has been paying to acquire fuel — even though the refinery itself doesn’t actually refine anything.
