Skopje-based OKTA has issued a press release saying the discount on oil derivatives has been introduced in relation to all clients. As it explains, the initiative is implemented at a wholesale level, while a decision to transfer it to retail is made by each trader individually.
Regarding the fuel price issue, the Government is actively monitoring the situation. Among the options being considered is reducing the VAT level from 18% to 10%, with a possibility of an additional reduction, depending on price movements on world markets. However, SDSM has said it will file to Parliament a package of bills foreseeing a reduction of fuel and food prices.
