Slovenian Government Limits Fuel Dispensing to 50 Liters for Individuals and 200 Liters for Legal Entities
By decision of the Government of the Republic of Slovenia, fuel dispensing is now limited to 50 liters for individuals and 200 liters for legal entities, after supply problems occurred at a number of stations across the country in recent days. The fuel supply problem is most noticeable at Petrol stations, which Slovenian Prime Minister Robert Golob also addressed, calling on oil traders to consider measures for foreign citizens due to the large number of citizens from Austria and Italy refueling in Slovenia because of cheaper prices.
